Radio 1 broadcasters and bestselling authors of KID NORMAL – Greg James and Chris Smith – are back with a mind-bending adventure you won’t want to wake up from . . .

But it’s not just a dream – it’s real and Maya and her new friends the Dream Bandits must rescue the Professor before it’s too late! All they need is a bit of courage and a LOT of imagination.

Reviews
It was very interesting
My favourite bit was when general Pheare was scared by the Teddy wearing a cow head mask, calling himself the night moo! It was a very funny book that I would recommend to anyone, and I am looking forward to reading the next one by Greg James and Chris Smith.
Good
It wasn't the best book I have ever read.
It’s a fun fiction book and Iove the character maya I would highly recommend reading it!
I really enjoyed reading the great dream robbery as this book is full with surprises . At the beginning, it started with Maya’s father stuck in his own dream (it does not tell the real reason at the beginning) by Lilith Delamere, his boss and the head of the Somnia incorporated.This book is really funny , one of my favourite parts was when Maya had a dream about the llama banana section which funny.Another, was when Lilith became a complete different person with the help of the dream bandits helping chase away Lilith father from the painting!
My favourite character was bin bag the cat ! This book is full of funny dreams and I recommend it to all the adventure lovers.
It was funny and imaginative
I would recommend this book to someone because it's a very interesting the book is about:a girl called maya.Her dad was trapped in a DREAM by his evil boss, and they all thought it was an accident, the doctors are trying to help to get him out. Maya isn't an ordinary girl she wants to sleep on the exact time but mum wants to talk with her every night
exciting, fun, interesting, intriguing
A fantastic book that really shows what perseverance and an uninhibited imagination can achieve. Full of lots of silliness along the way, a great independent or read aloud book. Can’t wait to recommend to children in my class!
There was a dream field and a talking cat and rescuing someone who was in a dream. Someone was checking in on him to see if he was ok but she was making him like that. It was really funny as an audio book as the authors added extra funny parts. My favourite part was the running around shouting that the authors told me to do.
An amazing book that I absolutely loved with stunning illustrations, the authors words pull you into the pages of wonder. The plot is equally as mesmerising weaving you in and out of settings from one where people can’t be happier to one where a general adapts a fear of cows (sorry no spoilers!). It is a book that teaches you that even when happiness seems miles away it is much, much closer than you think!
I loved it was all about imagination and forgetting about the real world.
Amazing! I loved the adventure they had. Maya Clayton is very very adventurous.
Some very funny parts
I had so much fun reading it and the ending and the technology enticed me

I enjoyed the part when Lilith confronted her nightmare and became a really nice person.
I think that the book is really funny and it was an enjoyable read, I definitely recommend this book.
I’ll give it a five because, it had amazing plot twists and so fun read, I love the fonts in it to, as I kept reading I was keep getting curious I loved how it had pictures between the pages. My favourite person was Maya ClayTon, she was so talkative and I loved her thoughts and what she kept dreaming of, the plot twists interested me the most, and yes, I would recommend to my friends who loves adventure stories and plot twists.
I loved this book it was awesome!
My favourite character is maya because she is very imaginative and creative. It was crazy and exiting and I would definitely recommend it to other people.

I like how the characters can go into other people's dreams, it is quite funny too!
I like this book because it is a bit funny
I would definitely recommend this book to a friend because it is so fun and exciting
Yes. The book was funny and it made me want to read more. I've also read the kid normal books before this one which is by the same author.
I liked teddy best because he was mischievous and cheeky.
I would defo recommend this because it was so funny and brilliantly written.
It was an enjoyable book
It was so great and was very funny. I loved the bit where the unicorn started to sing . The heists where fun and interactive and I loved how they used a bit from the start in the end.
The way it was written was very exciting was very intriguing because of the mystery of the dream trap dad.
I like the dream bandits the best (as they like to call themselves)
I would recommend it, they use loads of figurative language, adjectives, and as before is an intriguing and exciting story to read.
I enjoyed most of it apart from one bit where it became slow reading, but then the pace picked up and was easier at read. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole book though.
