Unicorn by Bob Shea-ADVISABLE



Shea, Bob,  Unicorn. Disney Hyperion 2013. PICTURE BOOK.

Goat is having a hard time dealing with Unicorn (who just moved to the neighborhood). Unicorn is just so great-or so he thinks. Unicorn can do magical things, dance, and turn things into gold. Then, Unicorn helps Goat find his own self-worth; and the things that are unique to himself. The friends pair up and find that together they can do more than apart.

This picture book has a great team building moral that is good for any group needing a little help uniting. The text is simple and complementary pictures are colorful. Teachers of students of all ages can use this to help their students see their own qualities and how they can accomplish more together. PteK, EL (K-3). ADVISABLE. Reviewer: Jessica Moody, Library Media Specialist, Olympus Jr. High.
