What are dreams? And how can we use them in our writing? Dreams are the images and stories we see and feel in our sleep, but they’re also the hopes and aspirations we want to achieve in our futures. In this writing program for teens, we’ll discuss our own dreams and turn them into unique pieces of writing. Along the way, we’ll learn about some other writers and artists who have used dreams in their creative processes. Today's featured book is Brown Girl Dreaming by Jacqueline Woodson.
