Fibi and Unicorn – Dana Simpson
On the one hand, a typical story for children: a girl meets a unicorn and they become friends. On the other hand, it is an excellent presentation of the problems of childhood and adolescence, so that reading this comic is also suitable for adults. What title are we talking about? Fibi and the unicorn , written and drawn by the American cartoonist Dana Simpson. The comic itself is a story in which the characters’ creations are based on real people (eg Fibi is the author, and Max’s friend – her husband), and even about their behavior. At the moment, four volumes have been published in Poland, introducing readers to how a girl with a colorful imagination and accurate comments about reality copes with being perceived as strange by her surroundings and her peers. Fibi and the unicornthey are a wonderfully complementary duo that at times communicates many life truths in an amusing way. – Jarek Trocka
