History
Little Nemo is a boy who goes to sleep every night, like you and me. But, what makes Nemo special, is that each of his dreams are pieces in his continuous journey in dreamland, where anything can happen.
First Nemos dreams started out as nightmares. Then, he got a task. He was to journey to the palace of Morpheus, king of dreams. The journey was long, and got interrupted often, because Nemo fell down of his bed each night, and therefore, waked up. But, finally, he made it there.
After having gotten to the palace, he continued to have more and more adventures, and made some friends during those adventures.
