Opinion:
My Girly Unicorn is a perfect book for all young readers because it incorporates powerful lessons of confidence, kindness, and resilience in the characters and throughout the plot. The girl unicorn resembles a strong character who despite being left out of most of the other youthful games and activities is proud of who she is regardless how she looks to the other unicorns. This character even faces and surpasses a challenge that stumps the other unicorns, and this shows readers that resilience and confidence can be found in any creature no matter their looks or size. Additionally, the book is doused in cotton-candy-colored clouds, vibrantly colored rainbows, and inviting terrain obstacles. The illustrations pair wonderfully with the story devoted to a certain unicorn’s appearance and the fun and exciting nature of being a young unicorn. Finally, the themes present in the book are prime lessons for young readers to recognize in literature that they can apply to their lives and their friends. Overall, My Girly Unicorn is a stellar and vibrant book just waiting at the edge of the rainbow for any young unicorn reader to experience!
