And if these strike you as big names to conjure with, I'll go further and state for the record that in my opinion \u003ci\u003eHeavenly Nostrils \u003c\/i\u003eis nothing less than the best comic strip to come along since \u003ci\u003eCalvin and Hobbes. \u003c\/i\u003eSimpson is that good, and that original.\"\u003cbr\u003e—Peter S. Beagle, author of \u003ci\u003eThe Last Unicorn\u003c\/i\u003e, from the Introduction\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eA boy and his dog . . . a girl and her . . . unicorn?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIt all started when a girl named Phoebe skipped a rock across a pond and accidentally hit a unicorn in the face. Improbably, this led to Phoebe being granted one wish, and she used it to make the unicorn, Marigold Heavenly Nostrils, her obligational best friend. But can a vain mythical beast and a nine-year-old daydreamer really forge a connection? Indeed they can, and that's how \u003ci\u003ePhoebe and Her Unicorn\u003c\/i\u003e unfolds.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis beautifully drawn comic strip follows the unlikely friendship between a somewhat awkward girl and the magic unicorn who gradually shows her just how special she really is. Through hilarious adventures where Phoebe gets to bask in Marigold's \"awesomeness,\" the friends also come to acknowledge that they had been lonely before they met and truly appreciate the bond they now share.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Andrews McMeel Publishing","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47046683328752,"sku":"9781449446208","price":12.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9781449446208_p0.jpg?v=1769906023","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9781449446208","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
