Many children are in school today only to fulfill the dreams of domineering parents. The Dreamers revolves around this theme-focusing on the lives of two teenagers who become unwitting victims of their father's need for power and control. Author Chrissy Yacoub weaves a fictional narrative that is lavishly layered with stories about a young woman's coming of age and the remarkable bond that ties siblings together. Yacoub brings to life the chararcter of Dream Warren, who while growing up, walks beside her sister Sara's shadows. She longs for the same affection her father gives to Sara, the beautiful, popular, and talented daughter. Each chapter captures a phase of Dream's metamorphosis from a shy and innocent girl to a fiesty and determind individual. Here, Yacoub effectively and eloquently displays a youthful spirit, allowing Dream to express her raw emotions in a well-crafted sililoquy. "This was my chance...My chance to really show somebody that I had some talent. My turn to shine." The Dreamers is also rich with details about pop culture and music. Sara and Dream share the same passion for music, and it is this shared passion for lyrics that binds them in the end.
