Blurb About: Uni the Unicorn - Amy Krouse Rosenthal, Brigette Barrager

Uni the Unicorn
Author - Amy Krouse Rosenthal
Illustrator - Brigette Barrager
Age Range: 4 - 8 years
  • Hardcover: 48 pages
  • Publisher: Random House Books for Young Readers (August 26, 2014)

This book, even though as a self publisher I hate to admit it, is a perfect example of why big publishers can absolutely blow the small guys out of the water sometimes. Spot UV printing and a subtle foil title on the dust jacket along with an incredible illustration and layout make it impossible leave alone. I don't even like unicorns and I can't stop staring at this book. Amy Krouse Rosenthal wrote a simple and cute story line which honestly does not need to be anything more because Brigette Barrager's illustrations could carry any text. 

Both Rosenthal and Barranger have a huge portfolio of work which I will absolutely be following after seeing the quality of this picture book. In a word, it's lovely.
