This is an old English folk tale that can be traced back to Norfolk.
In this tale a humble man who lives in a simple cottage is visited by the same recurring dream. For many months he ignores it until a friend encourages him to 'follow the dream'- little does he know that off in London somebody is having a similar dream and when they meet his life changes for ever.
Following this story consider these questions and activities:
Have you ever had a recurring dream? Tell a friends and ask them about theirs.
Do you remeber your most recent dream? Get some paints and pens and draw a scene from your dream.
Many people have dreams that they one day hope to fulfil, some may be big and grand some may be simple, do you have a dream of your own?
This is such a captivating story! It’s amazing how dreams can lead us on unexpected adventures. I’ve had a few recurring dreams myself and it’s always interesting to hear what others dream about too. Drawing a scene from a recent dream sounds like a fun and creative way to capture those fleeting moments. As for dreams we hope to fulfill, they can be anything from a big ambition to a simple wish – I think it’s important to chase after them, just like in the story. What’s your biggest dream?
