Confined to her bed with an illness, she finds a pencil in her great-grandmother's workbox, but the house she draws is as unsatisfying as always - like a shaky doll's house with grass as unlike anything growing as ever. But that night she dreams and rediscovers her drawing in a completely new world. Returning to this world night after night, Marianne encounters a strange but familiar boy, and the house takes on an increasingly ominous significance for both of them.... Funny, unusual, indefinable, the spirit of Marianne Dreams lingers long after the final sentence. Catherine Storr was born and lived most of her life in London. She practised medicine for 15 years but never forgot her ambition to be a writer. She wrote her first children's books for her three daughters, and many went on to become classics. Marianne Dreams was made into a film, The Paper House, in 1990. Contact: [email protected]
