New Zealand (PRWEB) January 10, 2013
Dreams have always been a playground for people’s imaginations, wishes, and aspirations. Many a fanciful fantasy that seems improbable in the real world finds their resolution in the realm of dreams. Author Murray Dixon, with the help of David Ogilvie, breathes life into the characters of his picture book for children, Hornsnoggle Ferret and the Pancake Fantasy Land. This is the first of a series of books featuring this loveable ferret.
In this book, Hornsnoggle Ferret is awakened from his peaceful sleep in the middle of the night by the unusual but nonetheless likeable Peek-a-Boo Sam. Sam invites Hornsnoggle with him on an expedition to a place called the Pancake Fantasy Land. Hornsnoggle can’t resist an exciting new adventure, so he accepts.
Children will love the adventures of Hornsnoggle Ferret. He’s the ferret who just can’t say “no” to an adventure, be it in his own backyard, outer space, or a fantasy land full of weird and wonderful friends. Written in an easy-to-read poetry style, every child will love this adventurous ferret, as well as the other interesting characters he meets along the way.
