What a Day for a Daydream

By Xochi Blymyer

Overview

What A Day for A Daydream is a whimsical story about a quiet six-year-old boy whose imagination runs joyfully out of control. After Patrick discovers a box of shimmering beans and plants them with his cousin Brittany, a nighttime storm brings a magical surprise. By morning, twisting vines bloom with tiny puppies—each one just the right size for a child to love and hold. Patrick and Brittany happily share the puppies with their smaller friends, turning the backyard into a place full of laughter and wagging tails. But the vines keep growing… and growing. Soon there are more puppies than anyone knows what to do with. Just as Patrick wonders how to fix his too-much-magic problem, he wakes up in the meadow and realizes it was all a daydream. With gentle humor and classic storybook charm, What A Day for A Daydream celebrates imagination, sharing, and the comforting truth that sometimes the best adventures live in our dreams.

A longtime writer of quirky, lighthearted tales, Xochi now shares her very first children's book, inspired by the magical chaos of growing up with animals wherever she turned.
