Another cute entry in this series. Phoebe's time at music camp was my favorite part.

Another excellent collection of Phoebe and Marigold's misadventures, this time with a few goblins thrown in. I just love this series so much. In my head, I think I like unicorns, but honestly, most of the time I find stories about them kind of boring. However Marigold is lovely (duh!) and magnificent and I just love her relationship to Phoebe. They are funny and adorable and I don't think I will ever get tired of reading about their time together.
Phoebe is such a wonderful character who is un-apologetically herself with all her strengths and flaws shining through. Simpson has created some truly lovable and remarkable characters. Heck, at this point, I'll even put up with Dakota because of all of the complexity she brings to this series.
Great books for kids and adults alike, even better when read together.

Unicorns? Check.
Funny? Check.
I have seen this series go in and out of the library a whole lot. It seems popular with a large, diverse crowd. I mean, who doesn't like unicorns? I actually haven't read any of the other books in this series, but this one happened to come across my desk one afternoon, so I decided to check it out and see what it was about.
It is perfectly adorable. The characters are amusing and developed enough I didn't even need to read the other books to understand what was going on in this book, so that was really nice. Not to mention it was funny. Sometimes kids books that are funny, aren't funny to use older people, but this one was. Or perhaps, it was more my type of humor.
Adding to that, the art is simply gorgeous and the colors are lovely and bright. This is most certainly a graphic novel I'd have no problems suggesting to kids to read. It feels very young and relatable for children.
