He needs a backup plan  Or a backup Guardian, as it were. His keen eye falls upon a sleepy little fellow living on a sleepy little island who is a sweet-dreamer extraordinaire. Since good dreams always trump bad ones, this means Pitch, the Nightmare King, will be further thwarted in his nefarious quest to terrorize children. Indeed, Sanderson Mansnoozie seems the perfect choice. But there are two problems.

And secondly, how can MiM keep this snoozy ally awake long enough to help? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis follow-up to the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times\u003c\/i\u003e bestselling \u003ci\u003eThe Man in the Moon\u003c\/i\u003e, called \"dazzlingly inventive\" by \u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e, introduces us to the sleepy little fellow to whom we all owe many a good nights' rest, the second Guardian of Childhood, the Sandman.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e William Joyce\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1442430427\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781442430426\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Atheneum Books for Young Readers\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/02\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 48\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.15lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.10h x 10.20w x 0.60d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 4.6\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.5\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Lower Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e155021 \/ Sandman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 09\/15\/2012\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/15\/2012 pg. 54\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 11\/19\/2012 pg. 57\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2012 pg. 119\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eHornbook Guide to Children\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/01\/2013 pg. 32 - Below Average, With Minor Flaw","brand":"William Joyce","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44055427580159,"sku":"9781442430426","price":19.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_9f6f20b3-1925-4150-a893-5f851be23250.jpg?v=1685035708","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/the-sandman-william-joyce-9781442430426","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
