The Twelve Labors of the Oneironauts Christopher Botkin

"Row, row, row your boat, gently down the stream. Merrily, merrily, merrily, merrily, life is but a dream..." The Cousins and Pets are not so merrily trapped in the nursery rhyme when the Gooneybird takes them to Dreamland. They learn two things: they control the dream, and one never knows when a plague of dung beetles will come in handy.------"The Twelve Labors of the Oneironauts" is Book 4 of the Cousin Chronicles, a series of books I am writing for my grandchildren. They receive one each year as their Christmas present from grandpa. The stories are about them, as characters they tell me they want to be, and their adventures together in my imagination. No claim is made about the Cousin Chronicles being educational or inspirational or, in fact, good for children in any way. They're just fun to read. In case you wondered, an oneironaut is a traveler in a lucid dream.
