+ Want to read

A modern myth of fantasy and imagination, THE SANDMAN PRESENTS: TALLER TALES chronicles the adventures of the curious inhabitants of the dimension known as the Dreaming. An alternate subconscious reality in which dreams occur, the Dreaming is a land of fantastical creatures that script and act in the theatrical productions that are humans' sleeping fantasies. A highly inventive and witty book, this volume features entertaining tales about a few of these individuals, including the former lover of the King of Dreams, the delusional being responsible for capturing escaped dreams, and the cast and crew that produce our nightmares and dreams. SUGGESTED FOR MATURE READERS.
