Bookroo's summary

Goat feels overshadowed by his new neighbor, Unicorn, who can fly and make it rain cupcakes. As Goat struggles with envy, a shared pizza reveals Unicorn's life isn't perfect. Can Goat discover his own worth and forge an unexpected friendship with Unicorn? Dive into a tale of self-discovery and the true meaning of friendship.

From the publisher

Ever since Unicorn moved into the neighborhood, Goat has been feeling out of sorts. Goat thought his bike was cool-until he saw that Unicorn could fly to school! Goat made marshmallow squares that almost came out right, but Unicorn made it rain cupcakes! Unicorn is such a show-off, how can Goat compete? When Goat and Unicorn share a piece of pizza, Goat learns that being a unicorn might not be all it’s cracked up to be. And when Unicorn shows his admiration for Goat, it looks like the beginning of a beautiful friendship.
