School Library Journal Review

Gr 3--6--In the 13th volume of this series about the friendship between a girl named Phoebe and a unicorn called Marigold Heavenly Nostrils, Phoebe notices that unicorns are the next big fad--at least, in the human world. So Marigold decides to make humans just as trendy in the Unicorn Lands, with mixed results. Other story lines in the book involve Phoebe and Marigold playing superheroes, going to classmate Dakota's Blarty Award ceremony, and preparing for a visit from the tooth fairy. Supernatural elements and modern settings blend to form delightfully amusing, colorful comics that focus on character interactions. Phoebe and Marigold are caring friends who often engage in thoughtful, relatable discussions about topics like frenemies, self-consciousness, worries about what others think, and the need for alone time. Marigold's attempts to relate to Phoebe's dilemmas by sharing her own anecdotes and unicorn lore are particularly amusing. Phoebe is brown-skinned, while Dakota is white. VERDICT Hand to fans of the series and young fantasy readers with an interest in unicorns.
