Kevin the unicorn is back in a new adventure! When he finds out that a new unicorn is moving in next door, the lovable Kevin just knows that they’ll be the best of friends. But what happens when they end up having more differences than similarities? Maybe it’s not always true that opposites attract...

Editorial Reviews

Praise for Kevin the Unicorn: It's Not All Rainbows:“Blending the timeless wisdom of Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day with a slight parody of current trends, this picture book is an excellent antidote to the cult of positive thinking. Slightly subversive and a lot of fun.” — Kirkus Reviews“Earnestly proving that even unicorns can have terrible, horrible, no good, very bad days... ‘And,’ von Innerebner concludes, ‘that’s okay.’” — Booklist
