Unicorn Thinks He's Pretty Great
Young Hoosier Book Award Master List (Indiana), 2015
The grass is always greener on the unicorn's side of the fence—or is it?—in this clever, bestselling favorite that Publishers Weekly called a "nonstop giggle generator"!
Ever since Unicorn moved into the neighborhood, Goat has been feeling out of sorts. Goat thought his bike was cool—until he saw that Unicorn could fly to school! Goat made marshmallow squares that almost came out right, but Unicorn made it rain cupcakes! Unicorn is such a show-off, how can Goat compete? When Goat and Unicorn share a piece of pizza, Goat learns that being a unicorn might not be all it’s cracked up to be. And when Unicorn shows his admiration for Goat, it looks like the beginning of a beautiful friendship.

Praise
“Brilliant in execution and hysterical in dialogue; Shea's pretty great, too.”
—Kirkus Reviews
“Shea's cleverly written tale makes this a standout, but there's substance here, too…. Will delight unicorn fans and perhaps create new fans for goats.
—Booklist
“A great study in grass-is-greener envy management and a nonstop giggle generator.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Shea's honest portrayal of negative emotions mixed with offbeat comedy should make this a winner.”
—Horn Book
“Shea's cartoon illustrations are perfectly suited to expressing the characters' varied emotions while keeping the story very tongue-in-cheek, with lots of giggle-worthy details. An ideal choice for fans of silliness.”
