“Goodnight Jeremy” his mother says as she kisses him on the head and softly closes the door behind her. He sighs and looks around the dark room with his childish eyes, then pulls the cover up over his head and slowly falls asleep.

Jeremy wakes up with a start, and looks around in wonder. What once was his boring wood bedroom, is now a jungle full of vines and flowers. He sits up sharply and looks down to realize he is not in his plain nightgown anymore. The scratchy cotton has been traded out for the most delicate woven fibers for both his shirt and shorts. Jeremy looks around with those wide eyes of his, and his eye catches on something orange in the distance. As the shape gets closer, he realizes that it is a majestic tiger swaying through the trees. Jeremy laughs and throws his hand out, hoping to slow down the tiger. It works and soon the tiger throws Jeremy up in the air and lands him on his back. Soon they are swaying through the trees together, hair blowing in the wind. “Slow down a little” Jeremy tells the tiger with a laugh, and somehow, the tiger seems to understand him. As they are riding, Jeremy says “I’m going to name you Jack!” Jack, the tiger grunts his approval and they continue running. A bit later, they seem to have reached their destination, back to the bed where Jeremy woke up. Exhausted from this long journey, Jeremy almost collapses in a pile of leaves. Slowly, he falls back asleep, and when he wakes up again, it is no longer in that magical place, it’s back to the boring old bedroom.
