Praise
An Amazon Best Book of the MonthA 2018-2019 Florida SSYRA Jr. List Book Praise for You Don't Want a Unicorn!: "Climo's rainbow-bright illustrations take Dyckman's silly premise to a whole new level of absurdity.... This is a crowd-pleaser, complete with cupcake poops and rainbow burps, and...a welcoming and unobtrusive gender-nonconforming vibe."
—Horn Book
"Climo creates gleeful unicorn havoc ... there's a lot of mischievous fun to be had."
—Publishers Weekly
"The tone of the wry, bemused narrator is perfect...and the target audience will likely be eager for a repeat listen."
