Phoebe and Her Unicorn

It all started when 9-year-old Phoebe skipped a rock across a pond and accidentally hit a unicorn in the face. Improbably, as a result Phoebe was granted one wish, which she used to make the unicorn, Marigold Heavenly Nostrils, her best friend.

In this first collection of Dana Simpson’s beloved comic strip series, the bond between precocious Phoebe and self-absorbed but kind Marigold grows into a true friendship. Along the way, Phoebe deals with the usual burdens of childhood (cruel classmates, gym class, piano lessons) and some unusual ones (magic hair, candy-breathing dragons, and the legendary Shield of Boringness).

Vividly drawn and witty, this charming series is perfect for young readers ages 8-10 and sure to mesmerize even reluctant readers.

• Friendship-focused stories filled with unicorns, dragons, enchanted mishaps, and imaginative fun
• Perfect for readers ages 8–10 who enjoy graphic novels and magical adventures
• Full-color artwork and non-stop laughs that appeal to independent and reluctant readers alike

Meet the unicorn best friend readers have fallen in love with and start the adventure from the very beginning.
