Possibly no one has even written about the problems of falling asleep, stress and the factors of self-regulation in such a fun, light-hearted and compelling way.

Thanks to Boguś Janiszewski, who for the longest time has answered children’s difficult questions, we meet a boy who wriggles nervously in bed and when he finally looks underneath it meets a charming creature: Dusty, a dust bunny. Apart from his personal charm, he possesses superpowers which enable him to enter the boy’s body. Their expedition results in unexpected twists, funny – and occasionally dangerous – situations from which they barely get out alive. It comes as no surprise that along the way the protagonists become friends. A decidedly greater surprise may be that they understand better and better how the body works – and most importantly young readers do, too. It’s incredible how much you can learn by having fun.

Agnieszka Karp-Szymańsk, translated by David French
