Oh my goodness, this is so cute. I couldn’t resist when I saw the cover with that jolly unicorn and the really miffed looking horse… I laughed a lot. If you need cheering up, read this!

Some of us are unicorns and make rainbows and some of us are horses and, well, make something else… Some of us eat pink cupcakes and some of us munch on hay… A story teaching us about envy and what really counts and makes us happy.

I received an advanced copy of this book from the publisher through NetGalley. All opinions are my own and I was not required to give a positive review.

This ebook was made available for me to read  and review by David W. Miles, Familius, and NetGalley.

The illustrator of this picture book is Hollie Mengert. The pictures are exaggerated for humor and very brightly colored. Making the experience inviting for the reader. 

This delightful picture book is beloved of my grandkids. I had to read this three times. Once for each individual grandkid, I guess. This is about envy and is an enemies to friends' tales of horsey heroics. Enjoy!

Thank you to David W. Miles, Familius, and NetGalley for the opportunity to read and review this ebook. All opinions and viewpoints expressed in this review are my own.

This was lovely. A beautiful story about envy, but also about setting aside our jealousies and becoming friends. 


Then there's the art! It's fantastic. The artist has done an exceptional job of capturing facial expressions and body language in order to convey emotion. Top notch art. 


An uplifting and joyous read.

Um livro infantil muito bonito quer nas ilustrações, quer na mensagem.
Porque na verdade não precisamos de ser unicórnios para sermos especiais, basta sermos quem somos

Adorable. Unicorn and Horse live together in the same paddock. Unicorn eats pink cupcakes. Horse… does not.

A wonderful story with beautiful illustrations about envy, valuing who you are and realizing we are all sometimes unicorns and all sometimes a bit of horse.
