I had to buy this book for my library because it was a) by Dallas Clayton, author of an Awesome Book and b) about a unicorn, and there just aren't enough unicorn books out there.When it arrived my processor, who is practically perfect, commented that she care for it. "It doesn't look like a unicorn," she said. "And I just don't like the artwork." Flipping it open quickly, I too was a little put off by the busyness of the words splashed all over the page. It wouldn't do for a storytime, and it might not do for those sober little princess types. Sigh.But I opened it again at my desk, and in the imaginary presence of my extremely funny four year old grandson, I gave it a good reading and fell in love. Lily the Unicorn is trying to make friends with Roger, a surly penguin, but he just doesn't want to do anything. Roger's favorite drink is warm water; his favorite sport is resting; his favorite smell is plain. He doesn't like games, being silly or climbing trees. ROGER DOESN'T GET OUT MUCH.This book does exactly what, at first glance, I didn't think it had. It is able to tap into the child brain and wiggle that isn't-it-so-true spot, ha ha ha. What's wrong with Roger? Stomach madness? Not enough carrots? Lost marbles? So it goes. This book is hilarious. Find yourself a four year old, or try to transform yourself, and enjoy it.
My 2 year old loves the book. It doesn't read in classic paragraph form, but don't let that keep you from buying the book. It is very clever and cute and my child enjoys talking about all of the illustrations throughout the book. She doesn't get some of the humor, but the humor helps make it more appealing to adults too.
My little granddaughter loves unicorns so this book was a must. It didn't disappoint. She is reading it over and over. The story and the pictures are delightful. A perfect book for any child, especially one who loves unicorns.
I wanted to LOVE this book. My daughter's name is Lily and I love unicorns win win!The pictures are definitely cute but I didn't love the story. I don't really know why Roger needs to be cast as a 'shut-in' and its a little awkward to read.My 3.5 y/o seems to like it though, so I guess it's not complete rubbish
It's a very busy looking book. Good to be read to but, confusing for a new reader to follow. It's a cute book.
Cute book, the story is both sweet and a little strange. The underlying message of always finding joy in the situation is nice but gets a little lost sometimes in the awkwardness of the characters.
My 6 year old daughter likes this book as much as I like reading it to her. There is a great moral to the story, and the illustrations are fun. My only conplaint is that the story isn't very long.
Dallas writes books that can inspire people from all ages. This one has a million things to look at. He has a wild freedom when drawing and writing. His books are very unique and really connect.
