Tia has everything a noble girl could want—beautiful headbands, laughter-filled days, and a place among the most admired children in Egypt. But even when she smiles, something inside her feels heavy.
After dreaming of a golden crown too bright—and too heavy—to carry, Tia begins to question what truly matters. With the quiet guidance of a listener named Joseph, she discovers that not everything that shines is meant to be worn, and that sometimes the bravest choice is to set something down.
Inspired by the biblical account of Joseph, The Dream is a thoughtful story about belonging, pressure, and the freedom that comes from being truly seen. Through a child’s perspective, this beautifully illustrated tale gently explores kindness, courage, and learning to notice those standing just outside the circle.
Created for growing hearts—and the adults who read with them.
