Such a lovely book, especially for my unicorn loving girl who has just started understanding dreams. We'll be reading this over and over, I feel.

What a great book for kids. The story is imaginative and fun - all kids love unicorns and make believe sea creatures! The rhymes keep the story moving and makes it so fun to read aloud. The illustrations are delightful. This nana loved this book!

My son, who is 6 years old, could read this with confidence. He thoroughly enjoyed the book and in his own words described it as awesome! He loved the graphics and thought they were a bit crazy, hence lots of giggles.

Jake is a great character and the story is relatable to both girls and boys. The story is completely mad, but captures children's imagination.

I particularly liked the rhyming language used to help develop his reading.

We did notice a mistake on point 33 ' you can start it's way day'. DS stated ' that doesn't make sense'

Jake and the Purple Unicorn by Chris Hardy is a cute story about Jake, a dog, heading off to dreamland looking for an adventure underwater with Gwen, the Purple Unicorn.
I love all the animals Jake encounters; the illustrations are cute and the activities they are all doing is fun. I like the rhyming writing style, helps my children stay interested as we read along.


Thank you NetGalley and Publishing for the ARC in exchange for my honest review.

Love the premise of a dog’s dreams guiding the adventure! Being able to tag along in the travels to the wacky underwater is a treat for all readers!

Jake and the purple unicorn was an adorable story about Jake heading off to dreamland and going on a grand adventure undersea with Gwen. Fun illustrations, beautiful colors, and an adorable pup! My kids loved it and we’ll have to look for more Jake adventures! Thank you NetGalley for our copy!

Jake is an absolutely adorable dog who goes on a nighttime adventure in his dreams in this cute book. The book is told in rhyme as Jake travels to the forest and meets a unicorn. The story itself was a bit too simple for my 5 and. 7 year olds and would probably be best for the toddler age group. The pictures are bright and show many animals that kids would be excited to see!

Thank you to Books Go Social and NetGalley for the ARC in exchange for my honest opinion.

I read this to my kids, who enjoyed it very much! Jake has a wonderful dream where he meets Gwen, a purple unicorn. Gwen flies him undersea and they share a wonderful adventure. The colors are bright and the story is told in rhyme. Thank you to NetGalley and Book Social for a copy.
