About This Book
Reach for this book when your child starts questioning the world around them or when you want to nurture their budding sense of skepticism and wonder. It is the perfect choice for a child who loves to debate the 'truth' or finds magic in everyday objects like a simple hat or a striped sock. The story playfully challenges the reader to decide for themselves: is that a horse in a costume, or a magical creature hiding in plain sight? This clever picture book uses absurdist humor to explore the boundary between reality and imagination. While the 'unicorn' trope is a favorite for the 3 to 7 age range, this story avoids the typical sparkles and instead focuses on critical thinking and the joy of a shared secret. It is an excellent tool for opening conversations about perception and how two people can look at the exact same thing and see something completely different.
