In this classic Japanese folktale, a farmer has a marvelous dream. But was it real, or just in his imagination?

Welcome back, sleepyheads. Tonight, Thomas takes us back in time to feudal Japan, where we join Akinosuke on a rainy afternoon. He's soon to learn of a magical connection between butterflies and dreams.
