Gregory Maguire, the famed author of Wicked, spins an original tale drawing from the Russian folk stories about Vasilissa the Beautiful, Baba Yaga, and the Firebird.  From the first page to the last, The Dream Stealer is interwoven masterfully with wit and imagination.

“A magical, lyrical book; the stuff that dreams are made of.” – Nancy Willard

“There are so many small enchantments that it’s difficult to single out one.  This funny, warm, and original tale…is indeed a small treasure.”- Madeleine L’Engle
