K-Gr 2–Yeti takes Unicorn on a camping trip where they make yummy s’mores, swim in a hot spring, do a little stargazing, fly close to the moon, and enjoy a cheese picnic under the dazzling night sky. This graphic early reader features simple repetitive text and cheery cartoon illustrations in warm pastel tones. With an already built-in audience, this latest edition in an ongoing series featuring lovable characters, an endearing friendship, and an abundance of whimsy; it offers plenty of warmth, humor, and sparkle for burgeoning independent readers. The final page includes instructions on how to draw a campfire, as well as a few easy creative writing and drawing prompts.
VERDICT A winning title that both fans of the series and those just discovering Unicorn and Yeti for the first time will enjoy.
