Description

In this unique, interactive graphic novel, early readers learn how to make good choices - and even choose what the characters do next!

Dragon and Unicorn are best friends who agree on everything. Well, almost everything. Dragon likes to follow the rules, while Unicorn is more of a free spirit, so sometimes they fight. Luckily, in these three stories, whenever the friends disagree, the reader gets to choose what happens next. Each choice leads to a different outcome, and at the end of the story, the reader can start again and choose a whole new storyline!

Bestselling author P. J. Hoover lets readers drive the action in these short stories. The two characters are funny and relatable as they argue about clubhouse rules and what to do at a sleepover. As young readers consider the best way to deal with the interpersonal conflicts, they'll gain important social and relationship skills. Playful art by Lisa Wiley perfectly showcases the emotional drama in the stories. Strong curriculum ties to social-emotional learning, conflict resolution, and story writing combine with excellent character-education lessons in cooperation, empathy, honesty and teamwork in a totally immersive interactive package.
