Debbie Dreamer is a mom turned author, who has been re-taught to see the world has her daughter Riley sees.
One day, not long ago, her daughter was 12 months old. Walking hand in hand, as little ones love to do, this young mom was encouraging Riley to "step faster" as they were running late for an appointment. They were just outside the building without a minute to spare, and Riley stopped dead in her tracks! Debbie, wanting to make it to their appointment on time, urgently encouraged Riley, "let’s go Riley, we are almost there". Riley, still frozen, resisting Debbie's gentle tug to move, slowly raised her left hand pointing her finger to a beautiful blooming flower that was at Riley's height. "Tee, Tee" Riley said. The word 'Tee' was Riley's word for pretty, and that was the very first time Riley had seen a beautiful flower, growing from the ground. No wonder Riley didn't want to move, she was busy soaking up the beauty God had placed along her path, just for her to see.
At that moment, Debbie's world had shifted to a reality only most dream about. Riley had given her mom the best gift any child could ever give, the ability to see the world only as children do.
Debbie Dreamer as been able to make children's books fun to read for both children and adults alike, while capturing the magic children so easily see.
