Yuki The Unicorn

Yuki has wings but cannot fly, and watching her friends take off leaves her feeling left behind. Sonia Mehta's picture book, part of The Always Happy Series, follows what happens when Yuki's friend Skippy helps her look at the situation differently. Across 32 pages the story touches on friendship, kindness, confidence and valuing what she already has, without turning any of it into a lecture. Colour illustrations carry much of the mood, and the reading level suits children of roughly five to ten, whether reading alone or listening. What sets the pace: • A 32-page illustrated story from The Always Happy Series • A winged unicorn who cannot fly, and a friend who helps her reframe it • Friendship, confidence and resilience handled lightly • Suited to readers of around five to ten years For children who like gentle stories with a point, parents discussing feelings at home and teachers planning classroom talks, written by Sonia Mehta and available through Boipoka.
