'A delightful journey into a fantasy realm where dreams make everything better' Daily Mail
'Hugely inventive and wise, we adored this heart-lifting adventure' Heat Magazine
|| THE NO.1 KOREAN BESTSELLER WITH OVER A MILLION COPIES SOLD ||
It has been a year since Penny first walked through the doors of DallerGut Dream Department Store, and surviving a year at the store means one thing . . . She is now an official employee of the dream industry! She can finally take the express commuter train to the Company District, where all the dream production companies are located and discover how all raw dream materials and testing equipment are produced.
But the Company District is not quite what she expected, it hides the darker underbelly of the magical industry that Penny thought she was a part of.
Penny discovers the Civil Complaint Center, full of people filing complaints about their dreams. She also learns about the regular customers who have stopped coming to the store. As she gets to the bottom of each complaint, she begins to expand her horizons, transforming from just selling dreams to understanding what lies in the hearts of their lost regulars.
Return to the DallerGut Dream Department Store delves deeper into the dream industry and its customers. Why do some of them buy a dream and never return? Will Penny and her colleagues be able to bring their regulars back?

Return to the Dallergut Dream Department Store manages to weave meaningful teaching moments in the daily running of Penny's life at the Dream Department Store. We get an insight into another part of the world now that Penny has her pass and can go to the Company District, and her collaboration with Dallergut himself is wonderful. I can see Penny ultimately owning the Dream Department Store with the way Dallergut is training her to become a fully rounded dream seller.
It's hard to describe it as anything other than lovely. A warm hug in a very happy place.
My only qualm is that I would have liked to see a bit more of Penny and Maxim, because they look like they'd make such a wonderful couple!
Whimsical Slice of Life
