DECEMBER 2, 2004 / TCP Press / -- The American Booksellers Association has chosen Dream: A Tale of Wonder, Wisdom & Wishes by Susan V. Bosak (TCP Press, 40 pp, full color, $17.95) as one of its Book Sense Picks out of the tens of thousands of new titles published each year.

"With illustrations by 15 internationally acclaimed artists, this celebration of living and dreaming is the perfect book to share," says Melissa Olm of The Reader's Loft in De Pere, WI.

Dream is the result of five years of work. Each top illustrator offers a richly illustrated page in a beautifully told poetic story about life's hopes and dreams from childhood to adulthood, inspiring both children and adults.

"I wanted to write a book that would connect with both children and adults," says author Susan V. Bosak. "I'm thrilled that it has!"
