Goodreads
Dragon and Unicorn are best friends – but they are always disagreeing. They can’t decide what kind of clubhouse to build, what to do at a sleepover, or what to play on the playground. These friends have differing viewpoints and frequent miscommunications, but care so much about each other. In this “choose-your-own-adventure” style graphic novel, the reader gets to decide how these friends navigate these obstacles – and see if they can make it to a happy ending. This is a quick read, but with many different choices for the adventure, this story can be read over and over again. The big feelings and challenges faced by the characters are simple, and likely relatable for the youngest readers, with some good lessons along the way. This book includes three different short stories, which are relatively disjointed, so there is a lack of an overarching story or conclusive ending. The digital illustrations are colorful and expressive. Recommended for ages 6 to 8 (Kindergarten to 2nd Grade).
