"Music. Life. Loss. And the singular sensation that is forever Patsy Cline." - Darius Rucker

Little Patsy Cline is a dreamer who dreams great big sweet and shiny dreams.

Patsy has a big voice and a big heart - and she dreams of sharing both with the world.

Whether she's fizzing sodas in a soda shop of piddling in the garden, Patsy dreams of one day singing onstage at Carnegie Hall. And the Grand Ole Opry too. She muses about performing in Las Vegas as the very first female singer to headline her own show. She even daydreams about hearing herself singing on the radio. It's so real she can hear her voice booming in the air around her.

Patsy's sleep dreams are filled with adventures and blazing color. Her sleeping imagination is as big as her dreams and her heart.

And as much as she loves her sleep dreams and daydreams, Patsy's favorite dreams are her walking after midnight dreams. It's when she goes dream walking. She knows she's sleeping and yet it all feels so very very real. It's when life and loss entwine and comfort. It's where imagination and possibilities come together with surprising encounters.

A tender book about daydreams, sweet dreams and dream walking after midnight from Patsy Cline's daughter Julie Dick Fudge and Judith A. Proffer, award-winning author of Broadway Baby, Bondi & Poppy Help Heal the Planet and When We Stayed Home.

Patsy Cline made a profound and indelible impact on country music before a plane accident claimed her life in 1963. She remains one of the biggest names and influences in country music, and was one of the first country music singers to cross over into pop music. Cline recorded "Walkin' After Midnight" in 1957 and it became her first big hit, placing #2 on Billboard's country charts. The 1957 release was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame in 2020.
