Where do children go when they close their eyes to sleep? They step onto their dreamboats and sail toward adventure. From Maiqui in the Andes floating through the constellations, to Aljuu paddling along the shores of Haida Gwaii with Eagle, Orca and Black Bear, to Ivan sailing into St. Petersburg, then sneaking between the bony legs of Baba Yaga, stories and memories lead them on.

Dream Boats takes readers into the dreams of children around the world, dreams that are filled with family and legends, culture and love. Written in lyrical prose by Dan Bar-el with gorgeous art by Kirsti Anne Wakelin, this is a book to be treasured by generations of dreamers.

Kirsti Anne Wakelin is an illustrator and designer from Vancouver, BC, and a collaborator at a multidisciplinary studio that produces interpretive and exhibit design for arts, culture, and corporate clients. She has illustrated a handful of children's picture books, including Pig in The Middle (authored by her mother, Sally Fitz-Gibbon), A Pod of Orcas, Looking for Loons, and Dream Boats.
