The Absolutely True Fantasies of Daydreamer Dev: D
Forever daydreaming – that’s Dev. Sitting in class or watching the clouds from the roof of Kwality Carpets, he floats off to places all over the world and has wonderful, bizarre adventures. Read the fantasies of Daydreamer Dev as he steps into worlds where the totally incredible become totally credible– and more than a little Hilarious . . . Pht-pht-pht go the fans in the classroom. Chka-chka-chka go the helicopter’s blades above Dev’s head . . . Light snow falls. A cluster of tents is abuzz with satellite phones, as journalists rush back and forth. It’s base camp at the foot of Mount Everest – and for Dev the summit awaits! Joined by the ghost of a Sherpa woman and armed with only a chocolate bar, Dev tests his wits against the world’s highest mountain. To reach those dizzy heights, he will need to survive an avalanche, brave a blizzard and pass through the Valley of Silence. Will Dev go all the way? And will he get back in time to avoid trouble?

The Absolutely True Fantasies of Daydreamer Dev: D
Forever daydreaming – that’s Dev. Sitting in class or watching the clouds from the roof of Kwality Carpets, he floats off to places all over the world and has wonderful, bizarre adventures. Read the fantasies of Daydreamer Dev as he steps into worlds where the totally incredible become totally credible– and more than a little Hilarious . . . It’s Sunday, the best day of the week. While the boys of the neighbourhood are playing cricket on the hard, flat riverbed, Dev makes himself comfortable in the dense shade of a tree. As leaves rustle around him, a brass band strikes up and Dev finds himself at the start of a mind-boggling journey. Dev may think that tracing the famous Amazon River will be easy-going, but alligators, tarantulas, piranhas and an enormous anaconda make his journey as terrifying as it is exciting. Perhaps only a legendary boto—a dolphin pretending to be a sharp-talking young man—can help him. But can an imaginary creature really save Dev? And can he get back to his lazy Sunday afternoon in one piece?
