Critics Review
“The tone of the wry, bemused narrator is perfect…and the target audience will likely be eager for a repeat listen.” – Bulletin of the Center for Children’s Books
An Amazon Best Book of the MonthA 2018-2019 Florida SSYRA Jr. List Book

“Climo creates gleeful unicorn havoc…there’s a lot of mischievous fun to be had.”–Publishers Weekly
“Imaginative fun throughout.”–Booklist
“The tone of the wry, bemused narrator is perfect…and the target audience will likely be eager for a repeat listen.”
