In every sense this is a dream come true for Jacqueline, as she literally dreamt the plot of this story. It was such a vivid and detailed dream she decided to write it down. Most of the characters and the opening chapter were in the dream including their names. Jacqueline often finds inspiration in dreams and from walking in her local park, where she wrestled with plot holes and found a conclusion for the story. As she has always wanted to have a children’s fiction book published, this is also a dream made real.
