Samenvatting

Dream Days by Kenneth Grahame, published in 1898, is a collection of children’s fiction and recollections from childhood. Presented as a sequel to The Golden Age, it continues through stories following the same family of five children, maintaining a clear-eyed, unsentimental perspective on growing up. Throughout the book, adults often fail to notice the real worries, sorrows, and bursts of emotion that occupy the children’s inner lives. Among the selections, the volume is especially associated with Grahame’s much-loved tale The Reluctant Dragon, which has become more widely remembered than the other stories.
