A Unicorn Named Sparkle

40 pp. | Farrar | July, 2016 | Trade ISBN 978-0-374-30185-9 $16.99
(3) K-3 When the unicorn that Lucy ordered arrives, he is not what Lucy expected. Sparkle is ill-behaved, has fleas, eats everything--and looks remarkably like a goat. After Lucy decides to return him, however, she discovers Sparkle's endearing qualities. This is a charmingly odd picture book, with a sweet (if predictable) conclusion and lively illustrations peppered with rainbows, cupcakes, and butterflies.
