What's This Book About

Publisher Summary

Meet this pint-sized unicorn in this funny, modern fairy tale about perception and self-confidence from a Caldecott-Honor winning creator. Once upon a time, in a land where horses were mythical beasts, there lived a unicorn–a Teeny-Weeny Unicorn. He lived with his family in a palace–one that was extra-large for him, full of extra-large rugs and extra-large food. And when his brother and sister played chess, they used him in place of a pawn. When it’s just too much to take, Teeny-Weeny Unicorn runs away–and has a chance encounter with a salty gnome. It’s then that he suddenly starts to wonder… IS he teeny weeny? Or is he just the right size? Every kid will relate to Teeny-Weeny Unicorn, as he figures out how to live in a world not made for his stature. With wit and charm, as well as delightful illustrations, Shawn Harris creates a modern classic made for sharing–be it at bedtime or on a story time rug.
