'Unicorn Playlist' by Dana Simpson is the 14th book in the Phoebe and Her Unicorn series.

When the collection opens, Phoebe is sad, and Marigold tries to figure out why. Then it's on to mail delivery systems and we learn about the Pointy Express. We also learn that unicorns invented bluetooth and there are alternate worlds with very different versions of Phoebe.

These books offer consistent humor and fun situations. There are always new things to find out about the world of unicorns. The book also includes a glossary for younger readers to learn new words.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Andrews McMeel Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.

Who doesn't love Marigold's humility lessons?!?!
I liked the development of Phoebe at Dakota's table and her general navigation of friendships. I think lots of kids can relate to that - I sure did as an adult.
I also like that unicorns can be non-binary and use the word "neigh" for their pronouns. That was a little confusing as I read "Neigh thinks..." but it was a great way to introduce pronoun choice.
Love Phoebe and Her Unicorn!!

Super-cute, as always. Marigold’s “roast” was hilarious.

Unicorn Playlist, Another Phoebe and Her Unicorn Adventure is the fourteenth title of Phoebe and Her Unicorn by Dana Simpson, a funny story with beautiful bright color pictures.

In this adventure, Phoebe and her best friend, unicorn Marigold tried to find music that they both enjoy.
Marigold was curious to know more about her relative. They're going to meet her sister, Florence, and her cousin, Infernus, the unicorn of death.
I'm glad that goblins and their queen also were, BLART.

Marigold: "Robin Hood" is an old human legend? But there are no humans at all in this story, so far.
Phoebe: Well, this is an animal version of it. Sometimes humans like stores that arent about us.

Many thanks to Andrews McMeel Publishing and NetGalley for giving me the chance to read Unicorn Playlist by Dana Simpson, I have given my honest review.

Just the palate cleanser I needed after some horror fiction left a bad taste in my mouth. Phoebe and Heavenly Nostrils continue to amuse me in their shenanigans.

Phoebe and Marigold share a love of music. They explore some of Marigold's relatives. Marigold teaches Phoebe how to time travel. Phoebe participates in a popularity contest with unexpected results. I really enjoyed this collection and Phoebe and Her Unicorn still have the magic that makes me feel like I'm a 10 year old unicorn girl again.
