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 . . . Daydreamer Dev Crosses the Sahara Dev’s headmaster is sure that he has the ability to go far—if only he controls his daydreaming. But Dev knows that is the only way for him to go far away on fabulous adventures. Escaping his father’s lecture, he stretches out on his favourite rug on the roof of Kwality Carpets. Clouds drift, and Dev drifts too . . . all the way to Timbuktu, where his friend OP is waiting for him. The boys set off on an adventure to cross the Sahara, battling heat, flies, thirst, and camels—sorry, dromedaries—that emit enough greenhouse gases to finish off the ozone layer. Accompanied by a guide, Ibrahim, Dev and OP find that oases are few and far between. Will Ibrahim and amana (trust) help them reach their destination? Or will they be swallowed by the sands of the Sahara?
