Tiger Taylor is a little boy who has nightmares. One night, his mommy suggests that Tiger confront his nightmares. And that’s when Tiger formally meets Dreamwright (DW for short), the creator of his dreams. DW takes Tiger on a tour of his dreams, explaining as they go how dreams work and why they can sometimes be so frightening.
Ben Tousey has studied NLP (Neuro Linguistic Programming) and has become an NLP practitioner. He has also studied dreams most of his life and has written several other books including one book on using acting techniques to interpret your dreams.
Tiger turned and ran. He heard the big cat running behind him. Soon he could feel the cat breathing down his neck. Then he remembered what Mommy said. He stood up tall with all the courage his little body could muster and turned around. “Why are you chasing me?” Tiger demanded.
A confused look crossed the cat’s face as it tried to stop. Its front legs stopped, but its back legs kept going until it was all scrunched up in front of Tiger. They looked at each other eye to eye. Tiger could hear the big cat panting and he could smell its bad breath as he stared into its big yellow eyes.
“Why are you chasing me?” Tiger demanded again.
The big cat looked at him and whispered. “I’m not chasing you. I thought we were playing?”
“You play mean!” Tiger said.
“I do not,” the cat snorted, offended. “I’m your bestest friend in the whole world. I would never be mean to you.”
