LOOK AT ME. WHO DO YOU SEE?
Everybody thinks Unice is a rhino. What if I tell you she’s actually a unicorn? I bet you’ll say, “She looks like a rhino. She is a rhino.” But Unice doesn’t feel like a rhino and her insides are all mixed-up. She feels trapped until…she meets a tiger (or is he?) with glitzy rainbow stripes.
“I fell in love with Unice and you will too in this delightful story that shows that anyone can be who they want to be!” – Jazz Jennings, author of Being Jazz, & star of the GLAAD Award winning TLC series I Am Jazz
“A sweet, sparkly story about letting your true self shine.” – Maia Kobabe, Gender Queer
“A sparkly, rainbow-hued, glitter-filled testament to believing in yourself—and having friends who believe in you, too.” – Ian and Sarah Hoffman, Jacob’s School Play
“An inspiring, necessary lesson for a unicorn (and anyone) who needs reminding that we are who we say we are. Unice is a glittery, gorgeous force for personal agency.” – Kim Culbertson, award-winning author of Catch a Falling Star and The Wonder of Us
“A playful allegory of self-expression and acceptance.” – Kirkus Reviews
