For your daily dose of enchantment, may I recommend Dean Morrissey’s Ship of Dreams? This endearing tale explores the daily and nightly business of the Sandman through the wonder-struck eyes of a young child awake past bedtime. Morrissey lovingly populates his oil paintings with toys, trinkets, nautical tools, laboratory equipment, and industrial machinery, all contributing to his blithe depiction of the Sandman’s modern mythology. #deanmorrissey #ship #dreams #dream #sandman #book #books #childrensbooks #beautifulbook #beautifulbooks #beautifulbookcover #beautifulbookcovers #picturebook #picturebooks #picturebookillustration #picturebookart #childrensbookillustration #childrensliterature #illustration #kidlit #kidsbooks #bookworm #booklover #booklovers #bibliophile #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookstagrammers #instabook #instabooks
