When childbirth and dental visits became easier than putting their kids to sleep each night, the authors, who are both mothers, created the Magic Dream Bag. This magical bag takes the imagination on an adventure to alleviate some of the stress, worry and anxiety children feel when it is time to power down at night. The bag itself is beautiful shiny and gold-and it is full of whatever comforts the worried child who is looking inside of it.
This book, the first of the Magic Dream Bag series, takes Julia on a journey around the world, supporting her love of travel, history and culture. Without ever leaving the comfort of her bedroom, she stops thinking about book reports, science fairs and gym class, and finds herself in Ireland meeting leprechauns, in Argentina discovering penguins and empanadas, and in Japan, becoming friends with a lucky cat. Her evening of travel does not require a passport, but rather a Dream Bag, a little magic and a lot of imagination. You are invited to come along!
