I love reading to my grade and without exception Enid Blyton's "The Magic Faraway Tree" is my favourite. The children were so totally swept away by the magical elements of the story that they asked if they could capture one of the many lands that come to the top of the old and very magical Faraway Tree. The land they chose was, "The Land of Dreams".

The children, Jo, Bessie and Fan and their friends, Saucepan Man, Moonface and Silky have sleeping sand thrown in their eyes and consequently have periodic naps as well as very strange dream-like experiences when they are awake.

The children really loved the bed and decided that would be the first part of the scene they would make. Here's their take on the assemblage.
