You Don't Want a Unicorn!

(2) K-3 Illustrated by Liz Climo. This tongue-in-cheek exposé reveals the "reality" of life with a unicorn. A unicorn-loving kid wishes a unicorn into being; the (offstage) narrator, after admitting that having a unicorn is undeniably "awesome," presents the case for why "it's not worth it." Climo's rainbow-bright illustrations take Dyckman's silly premise to a whole new level of absurdity. This is a crowd-pleaser, complete with cupcake poops and rainbow burps.
