(3) 1-3 Illustrated by Hazel Quintanilla. The latest entry in Unicorn and Yeti, a fanciful comic series, uses high-interest characters and shimmery visuals to capture new readers' attention. Each of three chapters relates a low-stakes ­episode in the friendship between Yeti and Unicorn. In the first, Yeti's idea to make s'mores leads to a camping trip. Unicorn overdoes packing and setup--a contrast to Yeti, who only brings a sleeping bag and winds up waiting a lot. The second story centers on the friends finding a hot spring (Unicorn loves the heat, while Yeti prefers the cold) and the third around a discussion about the composition of the moon that ends in a cheese-themed picnic (everyone agrees about the value of cheese). Pastel hues, soft shapes, and minimal backgrounds nest some challenging phonetics (graham, fab-u-lous, dazzling) in a nonintimidating, cozy package.
