  This is a truth about growing up. 
   
  Once in your life, sometime after your first memory but before you can drive a car, something is going to happen to you that doesn’t happen to anyone else you know. It might be something good. It might be something bad, or special, or funny, or shocking. 
   
  For Millie, it’s something really sad. Lolo, her neighbors’ infant daughter, dies—unexpectedly, suddenly, inexplicably—on the night Millie babysits. 
   
  There’s nothing she could have done. There’s nothing she can do now. So how does she go on?  
   
  She does what you’ll do. She finds her way. 
   
  This poignant and profound coming-of-age story portrays a tragic experience of responsibility and its poisonous flip side: guilt. Cathartic and important, it’s an honest and empathetic portrait of a girl at her most vulnerable—a mess of grief,  
  love, and ultimately, acceptance—who must reckon with those most difficult of demons: death … and life.

  This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
  THE CLOCKMAKER OF ATLANTIS DREAMS — The Night Lina and Her Friends Awoke the Ancient Dream is the grand finale of the beloved 9-book series The Clockmaker of Dreams. In this last adventure, Lina, Kevin, Rex, and their friends discover that dreams are not just stories, they are bridges between hearts, and the key to bringing forgotten worlds back to life. 
  What begins as an ordinary backyard sleepover becomes a journey into the oldest dream ever recorded. A glowing moon, a mysterious path, and the timeless Library of Dreams lead the children to the mythical city of Atlantis. But Atlantis is not the ruin of legend, it is a sleeping city made of imagination, dimmed by centuries of adults who stopped dreaming. Its fountains are silent, its bridges cracked, and its crystal heart barely glows. 
  Guided by the Clockmaker, the children must awaken Atlantis the only way it was ever built: not with strength, but with hope. Through kindness, shared imagination, and the courage to dream together, Lina and her friends restore the city’s light, proving that even ancient magic responds to a child’s belief. And in doing so, they defeat the last traces of the Shadow, who once fed on forgotten dreams. 
  Heartfelt, magical, and filled with gentle wonder, Book Nine closes the series with a message children and parents will never forget: 
  A dream shared becomes a world healed. 
  Perfect for ages 3–9, read beautifully by Samarah, this final chapter invites families to dream one more time—together.
