Unicorn is perfect.
Everybody thinks so.
He yearns to look the way everyone thinks he should.
But when a fumble makes Unicorn feel like a big, ugly goof, he can't help but wonder: if he's not absolutely perfect and majestic all the time, will Kitty even want to be his best friend anymore?
The magical, bestselling team of Shannon Hale and LeUyen Pham put their horns together once again for a heart-bursting story featuring an utterly adorable kitty-corn pair, showing readers that it's OK to embrace our flaws and share the messy parts of ourselves.

Preschool-Grade 2 Kitty-corn is back in an adorable story of friendship. Kitty-corn is busy painting a portrait of her best friend, Unicorn, who is always worried about looking his best. While everyone is singing Unicorn's praises, Kitty-corn is trying to get her painting just right. By "just right," it turns out, she also means including some less-than-flattering details about the way Unicorn was looking that day. What Unicorn doesn't realize, though, is that Kitty-corn doesn't see all the little things Unicorn is worried about as flaws. And so Unicorn learns that when someone is precious to you, they'll never make you feel ugly or less-than. This is a great read to start conversations about how appearance isn't everything, as well as how even someone who everyone thinks is perfect can feel sad inside. It also shows that being kind and making people feel seen are amazing gifts--all wrapped up in a lively, tidy package. Beautiful illustrations on every page in vibrant pinks and purples playfully send the message that it's okay to share the messy parts of ourselves.COPYRIGHT(2022) Booklist, ALL RIGHTS RESERVED.

K-Gr 2-In this latest collaboration between Hale and Pham, best friends Kitty-corn and Unicorn are making a real mess of it. Everyone know that from his well-trimmed hooves to his deep purple mane and shiny horn, Unicorn is perfect. But when Kitty-corn decides to capture Unicorn's perfection in a painting, there is something that just isn't right. Kitty-corn realizes what is missing and subsequently declares her work a masterpiece. This humorous reminder that appearance isn't everything combines rhythmic text with bold and comical illustrations. The pinks and purples used throughout will draw readers' eyes to the center of the action and clue them into the words in the text. While the best friends are the focus of this story, they are accompanied by a gecko and a parrot that add their own commentary and hilarity along the way. VERDICT A sweet message, eye-catching illustrations, and one whopper of a surprise that will leave all readers in stitches-this is a great choice for story time.-Louie Lauer
