“The Yousuf’s Everyday Adventures series holds the potential to inspire both young and old alike toward new initiatives of creative expression. The illustrations are vibrant and delicious, the adventure is wild and Willy-Wonka-esque. Parents the world over have been creating wondrous bedtime stories and songs for their children for centuries and yet, constantly those stories and songs fade away like dreams as kids get older and tuck themselves in at night. Dreamland With Mommy reawakens memories of the crazy, cozy homespun bedtime stories many of us heard from our own parents and elder siblings. It provides children with a new way of looking creatively at the world, while also providing adult readers with the inspiration to keep the tradition of storytelling alive.”

“My daughter and I love reading this book together! The story is exciting, fun and easy to read. My daughter loves the pictures in this book and stops to talk about everything she sees on the pages. It’s a great book that will keep your child engaged the whole time. Can’t wait for more stories from Yousuf’s Everyday Adventures!”

I picked up the book for my three year old and it is much cherished by myself and my son.Combined with stunning illustration by Pavel Goldaev, it takes us on a magical journey to dreamland where we get to meet elephants, singing birds and a pirate on a boat on wheels !!
