Orphans & Foster Homes Editorial Review
**** "Gossamer" by Lois Lowry is a poignant fantasy novel that explores the intricate world of dreams and nightmares, delivered through the unique lens of dream-givers. It is particularly notable for its layered storytelling, weaving together themes of memory, resilience, and healing amid darker undertones of abuse and neglect. The character of Littlest One, a novice dream-giver, resonates with readers through her curiosity and bravery, guiding the narrative with a light-hearted yet profound touch. Lowry excels at creating a rich, imaginative world filled with emotional depth, as she contrasts light-hearted dream-giving with the darker experiences of her characters. The book adeptly balances its heavier themes with moments of hope, making it a thoughtful read for both children and adults. Reviews highlight the book's captivating Prose and the emotional journeys of its characters, particularly the interactions between the dream-givers and the abused individuals they aim to help. Some readers have expressed confusion about the titular character Gossamer and her role, questioning the implications of her "light touch" and its relationship to the agency of others within the story. Nevertheless, the clarity of the narrative flow allows for an accessible understanding of the complex themes. As a whole, "Gossamer" is a beautifully Constructed tale that addresses significant issues in a sensitive manner, making it a recommended read for children and adults alike, especially those who appreciate fantasy that touches upon real-world struggles. **
