This month's guest recommendation comes from 9-yr-old Alexandra who says,

"A terrific book with characters that will make you laugh. Phoebe and Marigold (the unicorn) are best friends always on an adventure with unexpected events and spells being casted. Watch out for the other magical creatures whether is gnomes, pixies, or a dragon named Todd that breaths candies instead of fire. It doesn't matter if you read them out of order. If you haven't tried this series yet, what are you waiting for."
PHOEBE & HER UNICORN GN VOL 16 UNICORNADO
SRP $16.99 Cnd (less 20%)
RATED: All-Ages!

A new school year means many things for nine-year-old Phoebe Howell and her unicorn best friend, Marigold Heavenly Nostrils. They prepare for a school dance (lame!), meet new friends (ghosts and gnomes and goblins, OH MY!), and even experience a rare supernatural phenomenon called a Unicornado! In fact, sometimes things get almost too magical. Marigold's presence attracts pixies, talking birds, and a sphinx, turning Phoebe's house into a magical sylvan glen. And Marigold even briefly transforms Phoebe into a goblin!

A tour-de-force by New York Times-bestselling graphic novelist Gene Luen Yang, American Born Chinese tells the story of three apparently unrelated characters: Jin Wang, who moves to a new neighborhood with his family only to discover that he's the only Chinese-American student at his school; the powerful Monkey King, subject of one of the oldest and greatest tales from Chinese folklore; and Chin-Kee, a personification of the ultimate negative Chinese stereotype, who is ruining his cousin Danny's life with his yearly visits. Their lives and stories come together with an unexpected twist in a twenty-first-century fable that is hilarious, poignant, and action-packed.
