Beschreibung
Introducing Tom Thorneval – Dream Merchant Extraordinaire, the rippingly entertaining anti-fairytale that follows the misadventures of a very likable Dreammaker hoping to sell his dreams at the Grand Goblin Fair. Unfortunately, Tom's great plan has drawn the ire of Fate, and he is robbed of all his dreams shortly after setting out from his home high in the Moondrake Mountains.
With his loyal (if slightly insane) stoat Wix, a devastated Tom battles on through a series of horrifically funny misfortunes as he makes his way towards what he hopes is the Grand Goblin Fair, only to draw farther away from it in the process. Will the courageous half-fairy make it back to his true love Mary? Will she be waiting for him? Or will all the orcs, imps, witches, dwarves and mysterious creatures that line the forest paths ruin his one chance at happiness?
The answer lies in the pages of this innovative literary event that races middle-schoolers through a Pythonesque world of music, color and wild adventure. Readers are invited to listen to the songs from the storyworld with their smartphones, send Tom down specific paths and even guess or discover the real nemesis behind all his bad fortune. And if that weren't enough, readers can go on to learn the über-catchy, author-composed melodies at the Addison's Tales channel on MuseScore.com. The fairytale will never be the same again.
