Reach for this book when your child is on the verge of a meltdown because a favorite toy is missing or an imaginary friend seems to have disappeared right before a big event. It speaks directly to the high stakes of 'transitional objects' and how anxiety over a lost item can overshadow even the most exciting plans, like a trip to the fair. Pinkalicious is devastated when she can't find her unicorn, Goldie, but with the help of her friend Molly, she learns to navigate her big feelings while still participating in the fun. This story is an excellent choice for preschoolers and early elementary students who are learning to balance their inner worlds with social expectations. It normalizes the intense attachment children have to their imaginary play while gently encouraging resilience and the ability to stay present in the moment.
