About This Book
Reach for this book when your child starts noticing they are different from their peers or when you want to discuss the beauty of having multiple 'homes' or identities. It is a perfect selection for families navigating adoption, bi-cultural identities, or simply the universal feeling of not quite fitting in with the crowd. Kelp has always lived as a narwhal, even though his tusk is short and he is a terrible swimmer. When he discovers a land-dwelling creature that looks exactly like him, he realizes he is actually a unicorn. This gentle, humorous story explores the intersection of who we are born to be and the community that raised us. It offers a joyful resolution where a child learns they do not have to choose one identity over another, making it a supportive read for children ages 4 to 8.
