Product Description

From School Library Journal

Grade 7 Up–Shinn returns to the world of The Safe-Keeper's Secret (2004) and The Truth-Teller's Tale (2005, both Viking), creating a stand-alone story with a unique heroine. When Kellen starts school at age 11, she is considered strange by the other children. She meets Gryffin, who is teased because his legs are deformed. As the girl grows and becomes more independent, she begins working at a local inn, which becomes a shelter for her friend when he needs to escape his uncle's abuse. After becoming involved in the lives of many of the travelers who frequent the inn and becoming ever-closer friends, the young people learn that Gryffin is the new Dream-Maker, whose very presence can cause others' dreams to come true. Kellen follows him to the capital, where more adventures follow, leading to a surprising conclusion full of twists and mistaken identities. Kellen's voice is authentic and direct, and her comments add humor and perspective to her adventures. This is a fast-paced and captivating tale, sure to appeal to fantasy fans looking for a touch of romance. Shinn has created a fully realized world full of unusual characters.–Beth L. Meister, Pleasant View Elementary School, Franklin, WI

From Booklist

Gr. 7-10. In a warm-hearted conclusion to a trilogy of novels set in the same rustic kingdom, which also includes ^ The Safe-Keeper's Secret (2004) and The Truth-Teller's Tale (2005), Shinn again bypasses grandiose good-versus-evil dramatics for a more personal tale, structured around the gentle intercessions of Truth-Tellers, Safe-Keepers, and Dream-Makers in ordinary villagers' lives. Kellen, the narrator, is hurt by her befuddled mother's decision to raise her as a boy; her best friend, Gryffin, endures more literal pain from his malformed legs and abusive uncle. Supported by kind neighbors and strangers passing through, the protagonists fashion identities in their wider community and hesitantly inch toward romance--until the identification of a new Dream-Maker sets their lives on seemingly irreconcilable paths. Although the plot rolls along paths deeply grooved by the preceding stories, predictably hinging on giddy coincidences and life-altering revelations, many teens will find beauty and meaning in the themes of friendship, self-determination, and "rare, magical moments of kindness." Like its predecessors, this can easily stand alone. Jennifer Mattson

4.0 out of 5 stars Courtesy of Teens Read Too, Jun 27 2008
This review is from: Dream Makers Magic (Paperback)
THE DREAM-MAKER'S MAGIC was an enjoyable read, light and funny.

In the story, Kellen Carmichael's mother insists that she gave birth to a boy and then that boy changed into Kellen.

This story shows how Kellen learns to deal with her mother's stubbornness and makes new friends. She learns to be herself and to not worry about what others think.

This story has a fascinating plot and a surprise ending. I would definitely suggest this book to anyone.
