Let the glitter and streamers rain down! Dana Simpson's third Phoebe and Her Unicorn collection, "Unicorn vs. Goblins," hits bookshelves today (February 23)!
School's out! That means no more teachers, no more books and lots of time to compliment Marigold Heavenly Nostrils on her good looks. In this third volume, Phoebe and her obligational best friend, Marigold, learn that summer still has plenty of surprises for the both of them. All of our old friends are back - Phoebe's part-time "frenemy" Dakota, upon whom Marigold has bestowed sentient hair; Phoebe's goofy parents; and even Lord Splendid Humility (but please, ignore his magnificence if you can)!
Have fun as Phoebe and Marigold continue the Phoebegold Detective Agency, spend a week at Wolfgang Music Camp and find themselves in more misadventures, thanks to Marigold's enchanted sparkles! Along the way, Phoebe makes some new friends, such as Sue - her unique clarinet-playing bunkmate; Florence Unfortunate Nostrils, Marigold's estranged sister; and Camp Wolfgang's lake monster, who enjoys tacos and Wi-Fi. When school resumes, read along as Phoebe enjoys (or suffers from) a brief case of popularity, mentally catalogs her grievances against dodge ball and, with Marigold's help, rescues Dakota and her hair from the queen of the goblins. Through these wacky adventures, Phoebe and Marigold learn that their friendship is the second most magical thing of all, after Marigold's beauty, of course.
Includes an introduction by Cory Doctorow and his daughter Poesy!
