Super-cute， as always。 Marigold’s “roast” was hilarious。

Once again the Unicorn and Phoebe books do not disappoint。 Dad accidentally left the news up on his computer and Phoebe saw it。 I have been there with my own kids and this just broke my heart。 I know the feeling of watching your kids get disillusioned with the world。 But the book isn't all sadness。 Even though the book hits some touch topics it is also silly。 But that silliness doesn't stop it from ringing true， even if you aren't a kid。 I love this series so much！ Once again the Unicorn and Phoebe books do not disappoint。 Dad accidentally left the news up on his computer and Phoebe saw it。 I have been there with my own kids and this just broke my heart。 I know the feeling of watching your kids get disillusioned with the world。 But the book isn't all sadness。 Even though the book hits some touch topics it is also silly。 But that silliness doesn't stop it from ringing true， even if you aren't a kid。 I love this series so much！ 。。。more

These collections are so sweet and charming！ The last book for grownups I finished was so grim and dark。 When I saw a galley copy of this was available to review…。 I couldn’t resist。 I really love how this author really gets the good and wholesome parts of being a kid without making these comic strips too saccharine。 This is absolutely a series a great series for a kid to be reading （self acceptance， emotionally healthy…） or for an adult who needs a palate cleanser on life and isn’t too worried These collections are so sweet and charming！ The last book for grownups I finished was so grim and dark。 When I saw a galley copy of this was available to review…。 I couldn’t resist。 I really love how this author really gets the good and wholesome parts of being a kid without making these comic strips too saccharine。 This is absolutely a series a great series for a kid to be reading （self acceptance， emotionally healthy…） or for an adult who needs a palate cleanser on life and isn’t too worried about sticking just to the age appropriate。 。。。more

I have seen this book series many times but this book is the first I picked up to read。 I very much enjoyed it and now want to read the others！ The author’s style reminds me slightly of Lemony Snicket in that higher-level vocabulary words are used - and a glossary with pronunciation guide is provided to help the children understand the words！ I am pleased with the current issues being covered in this book， such as Phoebe feeling sad， being let down by some adults， dealing with mean girls， popula I have seen this book series many times but this book is the first I picked up to read。 I very much enjoyed it and now want to read the others！ The author’s style reminds me slightly of Lemony Snicket in that higher-level vocabulary words are used - and a glossary with pronunciation guide is provided to help the children understand the words！ I am pleased with the current issues being covered in this book， such as Phoebe feeling sad， being let down by some adults， dealing with mean girls， popularity， and nonbinary gender identity。 The subjects were handled honestly and I appreciated that they were not sugar-coated but dealt with matter-of-factly。 I feel like many of my students would be able to relate to Phoebe’s feelings。 In fact， I related to Phoebe throughout the book！ At one point she explains enjoying the anticipation for a holiday， but also that she is “anticipating the letdown at the end of the anticipation。” It was so validating to see another character expressing the same feelings that I have always had。 I liked the portrayal of her parents， also， as being competent， loving， and kind of weird。 I caught a nod to The Hitchiker’s Guide to the Galaxy in the father’s clothing choice！ I highly recommend this book for the late elementary set， but I believe that any age could find some enjoyment from this delightful book。 。。。more

Meet Phoebe， an average 9yo whose best friend happens to be a unicorn， Marigold Heavenly Nostrils。 But Marigold isn't an imaginary friend， she is very much real， as are the unicorns， goblins and dragons that populate the pages beside human friends。Reminiscent of Calvin and Hobbes （but with more sparkles， less pouncing）， Unicorn Playlist is an irreverent slice-of-life comic that addresses both ordinary events and big issues。There is even a non-binary unicorn， and a couple of pages/strips devoted Meet Phoebe， an average 9yo whose best friend happens to be a unicorn， Marigold Heavenly Nostrils。 But Marigold isn't an imaginary friend， she is very much real， as are the unicorns， goblins and dragons that populate the pages beside human friends。Reminiscent of Calvin and Hobbes （but with more sparkles， less pouncing）， Unicorn Playlist is an irreverent slice-of-life comic that addresses both ordinary events and big issues。There is even a non-binary unicorn， and a couple of pages/strips devoted to pronouns and the addressing of said unicorn。 This was done perfectly， without being awkward or preachy。 This book is one of a long line of comics about Phoebe and Marigold， and while it does work ad a standalone comic book， I plan to look the rest of thr series up later。An overall fun read。 I loved the music references scattered throughout。 *Many thanks to Netgalley for providing a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review* 。。。more

When the book starts out， Phoebe is sad because she saw some of the recent news on her dad's computer。 And， well， the world can be a scary place。 Luckily， we all have Marigold Heavenly Nostrils who can distract us even for a little while with her charming narcissism and love of Phoebe。We learn about when the mail used to have more than just credit card offers， we learn what Marigold wishes for， we learn about Phoebe and Marigold's favorite music， some of Marigold's family tree （Infernus， the Uni When the book starts out， Phoebe is sad because she saw some of the recent news on her dad's computer。 And， well， the world can be a scary place。 Luckily， we all have Marigold Heavenly Nostrils who can distract us even for a little while with her charming narcissism and love of Phoebe。We learn about when the mail used to have more than just credit card offers， we learn what Marigold wishes for， we learn about Phoebe and Marigold's favorite music， some of Marigold's family tree （Infernus， the Unicorn of Death （also known as "Ferny"））。 There is also an interesting twist between Dakota and the goblins that I did not see coming。 Luckily， she still wants to be friends with Phoebe。 Lots of little jokes in between with my favorite being Phoebe's father getting a call that says "Scam Likely" and Marigold thinks it's a unicorn with the same name。 。。。more

Another seriously solid installment of Phoebe & Her Unicorn！ My ten-year-old sister adores these comics， and I do too—which I think speaks to Dana Simpson’s skill as a storyteller。 To me， when a kids’ book can be enjoyed by not only kids but also adults， that’s the mark of a good kids’ book。Unicorn Playlist continues with a lot of the elements I’ve loved in previous installments。 Marigold and Phoebe’s friendship grows。 Dakota gets into trouble with the Goblin Queen。 Lord Splendid Humility puts i Another seriously solid installment of Phoebe & Her Unicorn！ My ten-year-old sister adores these comics， and I do too—which I think speaks to Dana Simpson’s skill as a storyteller。 To me， when a kids’ book can be enjoyed by not only kids but also adults， that’s the mark of a good kids’ book。Unicorn Playlist continues with a lot of the elements I’ve loved in previous installments。 Marigold and Phoebe’s friendship grows。 Dakota gets into trouble with the Goblin Queen。 Lord Splendid Humility puts in an appearance。 Along with the magical shenanigans， Phoebe deals with friend trouble and concerns over the things she sees on the news。 As always， Dana Simpson does a wonderful job capturing how it feels to be nine。 Simpson treats Phoebe’s problems and anxieties seriously， without trivializing them—and I think that’s a big part of the reason that my little sister and I can both enjoy these comics。 Despite the difference in our ages， we both understand how it feels to worry about the news and to be anxious about meeting new people。 Phoebe’s concerns aren’t treated as less valid because she’s young。Unicorn Playlist is funny， hopeful， and wholesome。 I already can’t wait for the next book。 。。。more

Another collection of these slightly twee， slightly more meaningful comic strips， where we start with our heroine down in the dumps a little。 She's peed off with the world the adults have promised as her inheritance， and that's not really enlivened by talk of communication systems of old。 But before long we're back on an even keel， with the unicorn playing a Beatles LP with the point of its horn as the stylus， and so on。 Unfamiliar territory， though， like someone called Dakota and a challenge fr Another collection of these slightly twee， slightly more meaningful comic strips， where we start with our heroine down in the dumps a little。 She's peed off with the world the adults have promised as her inheritance， and that's not really enlivened by talk of communication systems of old。 But before long we're back on an even keel， with the unicorn playing a Beatles LP with the point of its horn as the stylus， and so on。 Unfamiliar territory， though， like someone called Dakota and a challenge from a goblin queen （or something）， proves you cannot really come to these pages without much prior knowledge。 That said， the conceited unicorn and its at-times worldly-wise human are still quite good company， and especially so for returning fans。 But less of the woke pronoun bollux next time， please。 。。。more
