Be careful what pet you wish for in this hilarious picture book from New York Times bestselling author Ame Dyckman and beloved illustrator Liz Climo.
When a little boy throws a coin in a well asking for a pet unicorn, he has no idea what kind of trouble he's in for. Unbeknownst to him, unicorns make the absolutely worst pets: they shed, they poke holes in your ceiling, and they make a big mess. With a knowing wink from Ame Dykeman, creator of Wolfie the Bunny and cheerful illustrations from Rory the Dinosaur creator Liz Climo, this rollicking story shares all of the ways a pet unicorn can ruin your life, and is sure to have readers in stitches.

"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 “Climo creates gleeful unicorn havoc … there’s a lot of mischievous fun to be had.”—Publishers Weekly“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
