Review of The Dream Keepers
[Following is a volunteer review of "The Dream Keepers" by Linda Keen.]
Two orphans are going through hardships to make their dreams valid. Thatcher and Starlight are left ophans after the death of their parents in a road accident just a few months after they had been born. The little children spent their lives with their grandparents until their adolescent stages.
The author of this book The Dream Keepers, Linda Keen describes how these two youngsters decided to leave their grandma's compound without her consent to go and search for Star's long time friend Annabel whom Star was feeling guilty of wronging by deleting her contacts and cutting communication with her since she left for her aunt's place.
Due to the death of their grandpa and frustrations from their grandma, who was now battling a mental disorder, together with the desire to meet Annabel again, they decided to pause their education and embarked on their journey which I later learnt took seven years.
Through out Star's and Thatcher's life, dreams that were somehow extraordinary took batter part of it. Thatcher always forgets his dreams unlike her sister who had tendency of joting her dreams down immediately she was awake. The dreams they were having were oftenly connecting them with their long died parents, this was strengthening them very much as they believed in their parents as their guardian angel.
Thatcher and Starlight encounters alot of challenges along this journey. We can see when Star was kidnapped . The courage that he has been getting from their grandparents and their parents in the dreams made him to save his sister's from the cruel hands of the kidnappers.
We also realize Star going into a coma when she fell and there she again have some dreams where she meets her parents.
Part one and part two of the book ends when the kids had returned home after a tiresome and a cumbersome journey which later I learnt was a way to fulfill their dreams. The author begins part three which is the last part with a new life of the kids when they are now grown-up folks.Grandma is still a live and both the kids continues with their education. At last
I realize Thatcher became an astronomer and his sister Star became a teacher and a writer as has always been their dreams.
Linda Keen has done an excellent job with character development. I could visualise Star's and Thatcher's journey as being tiresome. The racial discrimination and economocal challenges are vividly detailed in this book. One of the many lessons a brought away from reading this this book was that no matter how the journey to your dreams may be full of challenges , dreams are still valid if one is determined of his or her destination.
The author used alot of suspense which she was completing after two to three chapters, this was bringing confusion to me while I was reading the book. Generally, the book was professionally edited and I never encountered any grammar,spelling or typos mmstakes.The plot flowed smoothly that at some extends emotions were triggered. I give this book four stars out four stars because it is an enjoyable book to read when bored
I recommend this book to teens and adolescents who wants to keep their dreams and validate their dreams through this hitorian fiction. The book does not contain any sexual content.
