Published in 2021, Uni Paints a Rainbow is the second board book to feature Uni, following upon the 2019 A Valentine for Uni the Unicorn. The character debuted in the eponymous picture book, Uni the Unicorn, from author Amy Krouse Rosenthal and illustrator Brigette Barrager, before going on to star in an additional picture book from the pair, as well as a picture book from Rosenthal's daughter, Paris. She has also starred in a series of early readers that I have not yet tracked down. Published long after Rosenthal's death in 2017, this one is styled "an Amy Krouse Rosenthal book," with a text that was no doubt written by somebody at Random House, although (unlike the previous board book) the artwork appears to actually be done by Barrager. In any case, this is just a sweet board book about colors, set in Uni's unicorn world. I enjoyed it more than A Valentine for Uni the Unicorn, which did not impress me. Perhaps that's because the Valentine book featured a very awkward rhyming text, and wasn't actually illustrated by Barrager (the front read: "pictures based on art by Brigette Barrager"). However that may be, while there really isn't much to this one, it works fine as a baby's concept book about colors, while also providing some cute unicorn illustrations. I would recommend it to very young children (toddlers and younger) who love Uni, or just unicorns in general, and who appreciate bright illustrations.… (altro)
