This poetic and tender story celebrates the parent-and-child bond in its many forms. As a parent dreams of the future, the imagined forms the parent and child take mirror the milestones of an always-changing but unbreakable relationship.

From early dependence on the parent for nourishment and basic needs, to parent as home base for a child in later life, these metaphors offer gentle assurance of love across a lifetime.

Written in lyrical rhyme and accompanied by breathtaking art by the incomparable Rafael Lopez, I'll Meet You in Your Dreams affirms that parental love is a constant force, transcending boundaries of space and time.
