Always Be A Unicorn
$16.95
In this inspiring picture book for unicorn lovers young and young-at-heart, readers are urged to believe in their remarkable, singular, imperfect selves.
And it’s not what’s on the outside that makes a unicorn a unicorn. It’s what’s on the inside. Which means anyone can be a unicorn! So what are you waiting for? Go! Frolic in every forest. Slide down every rainbow. Swim in every glittery sea. And charge fearlessly in the direction of your most outlandish dreams.
Written and illustrated by the creators of the bestseller Goodnight Unicorn, Always Be a Unicorn makes a spot-on gift for anyone enchanted by unicorns, celebrating a big life moment, or in need of a reminder about how special and beloved they are. Perfect for birthdays, holidays, graduations, milestones, and just because.
“This book about being yourself, finding your joy, and living a magical life is as relevant to adults as it is to children. So many people these days are obsessed with outer beauty and perfection, but that is not what being a unicorn is about. It's about releasing your inner beauty. And though inner beauty isn’t perfect, it's pure and wonderful, and that is beautiful in itself. LOVED it!”
– Adam Wallace, author of How To Catch A Unicorn

Goodnight Mermaid
$17.95
The author-illustrator team behind the bestselling whimsy of Goodnight Brew (for beer-loving grown-ups) have created a new fanciful bedtime story, this time for children: Goodnight Mermaid.
As the full moon rises, we meet the lively mermaids. They sing, dance, and swim with a breathtaking array of oceangoing friends, from turtles and seals to whales, octopi, polar bears, and many more.
And here come the mermaids’ cousins―the adorable selkies and the fairy-like nymphs! Meanwhile, Her Majesty the Merqueen keeps watch over them all.
These body-positive mermaids are strong role models for today’s rebel girls: smart, vocal, independent, and dedicated to caring for our oceans.
Readers curious about mermaid habits, anatomy, and likes and dislikes will love diving into the Mermaidology facts that follow the story. And if you recite the Mermaid Pledge on the final page, you, too, will be transformed into an honorary mermaid.
This enchanting picture book in the style of Goodnight Moon will be a favorite among mermaid lovers of all ages as well as all children and families concerned about the health of our oceans and the astonishing, endangered creatures that inhabit them.
