"When I was asked to review this book, dream rooms for children: inspiring spaces for sleep, study, and play, my answer was yes with a capital Y! I know of many of the designers featured, far too many to name in this review, and I am in love with the rooms they have created. I can assure you that you will find a room in this book that you will love! The bright and calm colors, the beautiful textiles and fabrics, the stunning wall shows, the collected and created furnishings, and the lovely art all come together in a magical way. This is a book you can’t miss, from the baby’s nursery to the teenager’s and adult’s rooms. I just can’t say enough!" —SPLENDID SASS
