Phoebe puts on a horn and tail and pretends to be a unicorn...until her unicorn friend Marigold informs her that unicorns eat hay, not pizza. Perhaps, Phoebe concludes, she'll be a unicorn tomorrow.

Unicorns and pizza, what's not to like? This little standalone board book introduces Phoebe and Marigold from the Phoebe and Her Unicorn graphic novels.

My daughter loves all things unicorn right now and this book did not disappoint. It is quite short but she laughed at the end and asked for me to read it again. The colours are vibrant and the illustrations well done. It's too bad that it wasn't a little bit longer but my daughter was happy with it.

(Thanks to Netgalley for this ebook in exchange for an honest review.)

Review: Today I’ll be a Unicorn follows the story of a young girl named Phoebe and her unicorn. Throughout the story, Phoebe explores the world of being a unicorn and comes to find out that it is appealing and ehanting. Throughout the book, the illustrator provides various pictures that make the text and the idea of becoming a unicorn even more appealing. Towards the end of the story, Phoebe comes to the conclusion that although it is great to be a unicorn, it is also great to be yourself because you are just as unique. After reviewing this book, I have decided to give it 5/5 stars. I gave this book 5/5 stars because of how cute the message was and I show more feel like it would grab the attention of young readers. Also, although this novel is only six pages, the author includes many imagination prompting illustrations that also grasp the attention of young readers. After reading this book, I believe the best audience to read this book would be readers in kindergarten through first grade. show less
