Review on Gossamer

Gossamer - Lois Lowry

I have read The Giver and Gossamer from Lois Lowry and I loved them both.

 

She is one of my favorite authors and I enjoy her books very much.

 

This book is basically about these creatures that come out at night to give humans dreams or nightmares.

 

They are creatures that live on the memories of objects in the house.

 

What they do is gently touch the items to get a pleasant memory and use it to make a dream for the human.

 

In the story, there are 3 main human characters.

 

There is an old lady, a foster kid child, and his mom.

 

The boy has had a very bad past and he thinks the old lady is abusive.

 

He has nightmares and the dream giver tries to give him good dreams, to make him strong so he won't be vulnerable to the nightmare creatures.

 

This story is similar to The Giver in a way because they both have to do with memories and dreams.

 

5/5 stars.
