I was happy to get to read this through NetGalley for my honest review. I will say, I don't love all Unicorn books, but my daughter is big unicorn fan. The message about being yourself is perfect for both your reader and you. Our favorite part was the ending of both Unicorn and Ness being loud together. The book is a beautiful array of colors and not just like a rainbow threw up all over the page. I would highly recommend this book to others.

I cannot express how much I loved this book, I dare say more than my unicorn obsessed little. The illustrations in this book are gorgeous. They are so vibrant and colorful with a touch of whimsy. The story line was great and my kids were able to understand and grasp the message. This story is such a lovely reminder of the power of believing in yourself and the true value of friendship. I cannot wait to add a copy to my home library.

Such a sweet story about finding friendships in the least expected way. Wee Unicorn is sweet and the drawings are beautiful in their watercolor elements
In a world that is divided today, Wee Unicorn is a beautiful depiction of how we can set our fears and differences aside to look into others hearts and find something purely special. I will be reading this to my speech students as we talk about forgiveness and being kind to one another.

What a cute book! Love the illustrations in it and the storyline is quite sweet. It has become my daughters favourite book. She loves that it is about a unicorn.

A bright and beautiful read! Wee Unicorn features colorful illustrations telling a story focused on being yourself and showing kindness towards others. A story that will make your little one feel the magic!

Yayyy, this was awsome! Wee Unicorn's search of identity with a message at the end of the book is highly warming and entertaining. Children can follow Wee in her journey and be content with the ending :)

This book is sooo adorable! I cute adventure with a good moral, what more could you ask for!? The illustrations were amazing and I absolutely loved the map!

Wee Unicorn is adorable! The art and colors really make this story a delightful adventure. Wee Unicorn is small, with no magic, and isn't sure how she fits in. She feels like she should have magic. One day, she is put face to face with a monster...then realizes there might be more to this monster than she knows. As she sets off on an adventure, what will she find?

A beautiful story about finding yourself and seeing others for who they are, Wee Unicorn will have you rooting for her!

Oh my word this was whimsical and touching. The art was beautifully vibrant, and the text placements were well-thought out; I loved how they chose to emphasize certain words. I really think this book is a good example of showcasing a concept in a fun, interesting way without forcing it. 5 out of 5: definitely recommend.

The story and illustrations in this adorable book are outstanding. I only wish they hadn't used the comic style. The preferred traditional picture book layout would have suited the story telling much better. Otherwise a great book your child will love!

Wee Unicorn is a story about being yourself. Wee Unicorn doesn't feel like a proper unicorn because she doesn't have magic. Some of the creatures are kind to her about not having magic, while others are not. She ends up meeting another creature who feels like a bit of an outsider (Ness). They help each other realize that they are perfect the way they are. The illustrations are absolutely adorable and help move the story along.

Thanks to Charlesbridge and NetGalley for an eARC of this book for an honest review.

This book is very cute and exactly what I wanted it to be! It’s lighthearted but emphasizes the importance of being yourself. I’d recommend for ages 5+

Complete with simple maps at beginning and end, this uplifting story of a unicorn child who isn't quite what others expect. Feeling unhappy about treating another being who might be scary, Wee Unicorn searches for the magical being and learns the most magical thing of all!
The illustrations by the author are simple, colorful, and FUN!
Well suited for reading WITH someone of age 3 and up including ESL, and great for gifting to everyone, but especially to a school or your local public library!

Wee Unicorn is not quite what everyone expects, and mostly of the time that's okay. In fact, when she meets a monster in the lake and runs away screaming, she realizes that perhaps she is misunderstanding the monster. Wee Unicorn sets out on a quest, hoping to apologize and perhaps even make a new friend.

What's not to like about this book? The narration is clever and fun, the message heartwarming, the illustrations adorable and full of funky colors, and the ending silly and fun. While I don't love that we have to learn empathy through being hurt, I appreciate that this book reminds us that sometimes the ways we've been hurt remind us not to hurt others. This book isn't just about "be yourself;" it also reminds us to be a self that we can be proud of.

Thank you to NetGalley and Charlesbridge publishing for this ARC. All opinions are my own.

I really enjoyed his cute story about a small unicorn who didn’t quite know who she was. Meeting someone new and becoming friends helped her discover her true self. Very sweet!
Thank you to Netgalley and Charlesbridge publishing for the digital ARC.

An adorable story with a great message - don’t be afraid to be yourself and face your fears! Things may not be as scary as they seem.

Beautifully illustrated with warm vivid and a cozy art style, coupled with a perfect story for a little ambitious reader.

I love the addition of the map in the front, introduce kids to world building early! Lovely for our next generation of literary adventurers.

I absolutely adored this in everyway
Wee Unicorn is precious and I love them
The illustrations were bright and beautiful and I would like my home to be decorated similarly
the moral was great and I love Ness.

This is a delightful story of a little unicorn learning how you can be magical even without magic. I loved that the unicorn realized her mistake and returned to Ness. The friendship between Unicorn and Ness is adorable and relatable to young children. The illustrations here were great, especially the inclusion of the speech bubbles. I love maps in books and rarely see them in children's books. I can imagine my kids would be delighted to see these! I recommend this book to all unicorn lovers.

Wee Unicorn is about everything that you are made to be. I absolutely loved seeing how the friendships formed between the unicorn and the 'monster'. It was also a super cute spin on "Ness". My daughter loves the maps in the front and is now drawing her own maps so this really did touch on many different things that are important for children: authenticity to one's self, friendship, and being kind no matter where you are or where you're from.

Thank you to this team and Netgalley for allowing me an advanced copy of this book, I'd absolutely recommend!!

This was cute. Our kiddos enjoyed it.
There are a lot of words in it they had never heard yet, and I don’t think they understood.
We enjoyed all the magical elements and the artwork.
Thanks NetGalley for the copy to review.
