This book is so encouraging to anyone who's lost a loved one... this books shows that there has got to be an afterlife... these bodies of ours are are just earth suits... there is more to come... and they say its beautiful there... :-) This would be a great gift to someone who has either lost a loved one, or has a loved one who is terminally ill, someone who is interested in dreams, or just for anyone who loves life and wants to meditate on the fullness and beauty and awesomeness of life... when we are awake or asleep or gone on before...

Special Dream - After the Death of a Loved One
It's not very often one can get a stranger to open up long kept secrets. Hoffman has that inate ability to do just that. Perhaps because she herself experienced such a dream, or perhaps he was chosen to confirm the experiences of so many others. A must read! R. Mulholland

I agree that this book would make a thoughtful and comforting gift, especially if the recipient believes in dream-communication such as is covered in Special Dream.
If you have dreamt of a loved one who has passed on, it is recommended you read this.
For skeptics, Ms. Hoffman describes well how she researched this subject, giving all evidence to back up her claims (i.e. how many people were interviewed, from what states, why some stories were debunked, ect...)So, for my own skeptical side, this information proved helpful.

This book looked interesting. Browsing through, I thought it was well written. I was surprised...Reading it brought peace.

I'm very busy, ride the metro to DC most workdays and often get interrupted. It was easy to read on my commute with the many short stories. It was a healing for me. It gave me good feelings. The stories are from such a diversity and you understand a Special Dream is "normal."

very rare to find now, but there is a second edition that is available through Crossroad Publishing Company. Good Dream Book to own

This is an excellent book with many short stories about people who have experienced a special dream after a loved one has died. It is very touching, and at times sad, but there is an underlying tone of hope and peace that you experience throughout each short story. I would recommend this book if you have ever experienced a Special Dream or if a loved one has passed. It can help put things in perspective.

I purchased this book because my story was included in the publication. It didn't help me particularly since I had my own personal dream. The other dreams may help others though.
