Review
Pretty Kitty Corn and her best friend Unicorn are back and more splendid than ever. Unicorn is handsome and majestic and ready for Kitty to paint a masterpiece. Except … oh dear, he’s got paint on his heinie.
Unicorn worries that by being less than perfect, Kitty might not want to keep being his best friend.
Shannon Hale and Leuyen Pham have teamed up again to show children that being imperfect is okay. Best friends accept the occasional “paint bum” so there’s no need to be stressed by it. In a world now dominated by peer pressure and the need to fit in, it’s nice to see a book that says “no, you don’t always have to be perfect to have a friend.”
I did notice that not all the lines rhyme but I still enjoyed the art and overall message. B
