On her first holiday with her dad since her parents split up, Lucy is unhappy. Even her talent for writing stories has deserted her. But Lucy's wishes are answered when a strange being called Sharni comes from outer space to bring colour back into her life. Dreamstone is a magical story of adventure, friendship and dreams that come true. This is a gorgeous book with excellent illustrations for everyone age six and up! A must-have on the bookshelf for everyone of every age! The Launceston Examiner Smith's writing for children is wildly inventive and a delight to read. David Cowan, Western Australian.

Smith, Helene: - Helene Smith was raised in a rural area at Linfarn Manjimup, Western Australia. Her school teacher mother handed on a love of literature and a tradition of storytelling which became a lifelong passion. After a short nursing career, Helene married a school teacher and raised a large family, whilst all the time writing 'covertly' as a young mother - short fiction, private journal writing and poetry, honing her craft through TAFE correspondence courses. After studying Education and English and obtaining a degree as a mature student at Edith Cowan University in Bunbury, Western Australia, she wrote her first book; Operation Clancy (1994) was inspired by a wish to produce an 'easy to read' thriller for reluctant older readers. Since then, the sheer joy of invention and a fascination with the writing process has kept Helene in there. An experienced presenter and writer/facilitator in schools, community centres and institutions for adult learners she delights in sharing the writing process with others.
