"A beautifully illustrated work that celebrates the imagination of children and the power of friendship." - School Library Journal
"Beautifully illustrated story. The watercolor style illustrations draw the reader into the story and brings Cleo's daydreams to life. As a long time daydreamer I related to Cleo, her loneliness, and her imaginings almost immediately. I think readers and dreamers of all ages will enjoy the artwork and Cleo's feelings immensely." - Cheshire Public Library

Cleo is sad. She always has to hurry. To the bus. To school. She often feels lonely. But one day she'll go far away, to a place where she defeats sea monsters and where clouds taste like whipped cream. Only her cat will come with her. But suddenly there is a boy...

A touching story about a girl who isn't as alone as she thought she was. For daydreamers ages 5 years and up.
