In the tradition of Uni the Unicorn and Gaston, this heartwarming and adorable debut picture book tells the story of a young unicorn who was born under the sea to a family of narwhals.
Growing up in the ocean, Kelp has always assumed that he was a narwhal like the rest of his family. Sure, he’s always been a little bit different—his tusk isn’t as long, he’s not as good of a swimmer, and he really doesn’t enjoy the cuisine. Then one night, an extra strong current sweeps Kelp to the surface, where he spots a mysterious creature that looks just like him! Kelp discovers that he and the creature are actually unicorns. The revelation leaves him torn: is he a land narwhal or a sea unicorn? But perhaps, if Kelp is clever, he may find a way to have the best of both worlds.
Told with heartwarming illustrations and spare, sweet text, Jessie Sima’s debut picture book is about fitting in, standing out, and the all-encompassing love of family.
Review
"The message is an appealing one that could speak to many family situations relating to multiple identities...feel-good story" (Kirkus Reviews November 15, 2016)
"Adorable characters trigger smiles throughout" (Publisher's Weekly December 2016)
"A storyteller’s pacing and winning characters, resulting in an appealing book. Read it for a whimsical storytime or provide some text-to-text connections for older students with Amy Krouse Rosenthal’s Uni the Unicorn and Bob Shea’s Unicorn Thinks He’s Pretty Great....this title is highly recommended." (School Library Journal January 2017)
"Swap the tired Ugly Duckling for this delightfully absurd tale of knowing who you are and where you came from." (Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books January 2017)
"Sima’s bubbly, adorable artwork is nearly irresistible...This endearing tale will warm many a heart." (Booklist January 2017)
"This book is painfully adorable...The story is about finding your own way to belong,..It's just beautiful.” (Shelf Awareness Pro January 24, 2017)
