Media Reviews

Praise for You Don't Want a Unicorn! An Amazon Best Book of the Month
Climo's rainbow-bright illustrations take Dyckman's silly premise to a whole new level of absurdity.... This is a crowd-pleaser, complete with cupcake poops and rainbow burps, and...a welcoming and unobtrusive gender-nonconforming vibe. --Horn Book
The tone of the wry, bemused narrator is perfect...and the target audience will likely be eager for a repeat listen.

--Bulletin of the Center for Children's Books

Imaginative fun throughout. --Booklist
