The Forgotten Dream is a trilogy. Birth of a Wishing Heart (BOWH) is the first book in the series.
This book is designed to bring out deep thought about adult concepts such as mortality and morality while keeping a fairytale and child-like theme. The key to really enjoy this book is to remember that every good story hints at truth.
While you re-explore things you loved as a child like princesses, superheroes, and fairytales ask yourself
