About this book

Praise for Unicorn Boy: "an upbeat blend of magic and character growth." ―Publishers Weekly, starred review "With the humor of Meggie Ramm’s Batcat and the layered hero’s journey of Ben Hatke’s Things in the Basement, this is a true hero of a tale." –School Library Journal, starred review "Gentle through-lines emphasize the value of devoted friendship and the joy of understanding oneself through storytelling." –Kirkus In the second exciting installment of this magical adventure, our hero Unicorn Boy sets out in search of deep mystical knowledge: how to fit in at a sleep-over, how to handle everyone seeming cooler than you are, and what's up with this whole unicorn thing? Perfect for readers of Narwhal and Jelly, Grumpy Unicorn, and InvestiGators. Brian Reyes always felt a bit different―even before growing a unicorn horn, discovering a talking muffin, and swallowing the ruler of the Underworld to save his BFF. So when he receives a mysterious invitation for a Unicorn-Only Sleepover, Brian wonders if these fellow magical creatures might help him make sense of his increasingly odd world. Held in an enchanted castle in the clouds, not everything at this glitzy, glamorous party is as it seems, and Brian will have to fend off increasing social anxiety, ignore the negative feelings in his gut, and stay true to himself if he’s going to survive the night! With a wave of his magic pen, Dave Roman has created a cast of charming oddballs reckoning with normal, every day problems―you know, things like heroic destinies and the fate of all magic in the universe.
