Katy Duck is thrilled with her homemade dancing unicorn Halloween costume...until she sees Alice Duck's glimmery, shimmery mer-duck costume: "Tra-la-la. Boohoo!" Alice, however, admires Katy's creation, and dancing unicorn and mer-duck shimmer, glimmer, gallop, and twirl happily together. The simple story is slight but welcomes new readers with its large type and sprightly illustrations. - School Library Journal Reviews : SLJ Reviews 2014 December
PreS-Gr 1âKaty Duck is pleased to be a dancing unicorn for Halloween. But then Alice Duck appears as a shimmering, glimmering mermaid, and Katy has misgivings about her own choice. Only when her friend compliments her does Katy regain her confidence, allowing the trick-or-treating to begin. Cole's delightful, boldly colored illustrations capture the characters' expressions, and Capucilli homes in on a common source of insecurity for children deciding upon a costume. Beginning readers will find reassurance in this easy-to-decipher story that has large print and just one or two easy sentences per page.âGloria Koster, West School, New Canaan, CT
