Along the way, children learn how mountains rise incredibly slowly as the Earth's great plates press together over ages, far too slow to see in a lifetime yet always quietly happening.

A young octopus named Marlo learns that it is okay to have many thoughts and feelings -- you can settle them gently, one at a time, the way she settles her eight busy arms to rest. Along the way, little dreamers discover how an octopus has a soft body, changes color to match the calm sea, lets each of its eight arms move and think almost on its own, and tucks itself into a snug, cozy den among the rocks, all woven into a soothing built-in body-scan for sleep.
