#and I asked how many he'd summoned (couple thousand but I forget the actual number) and told him to be sure to see a doctor about it later

I've had a number of dreams in which I read a book, and tried very hard to remember the title so that I could look it up again later, only to find in the morning that wherever I wrote it down didn't actually exist-- the paper was part of the dream too

but I've never had a dream quite so insistent that the books (in this case it was a series) were real, and that I could find them again later.

I dreamed, several times, that I woke up and googled the name of the main character and found the first book

neither of which I could fully recall upon actually waking-- the family's name started with an S and was two syllables, something like Spellman or Spielman but not quite that, and the first book starts with "The Logger's ____" but that's all I remember. I don't particularly remember the plot other than it's about a girl from a magic family and her best friend (who is a boy) and perhaps a magic talking animal, and they have various adventures. Also the antagonist may have cursed the magic family's bloodline? And they have to fight her.

I even dreamed that my cousin had heard I was searching for this series, and sent me some pictures of her copies. (turns out it's a picture book)
