"An empowerment manifesto for creatives, misfits, innovators, and disruptors from the star of So You Think You Can Dance and creator of Broadway's Finding Neverland. A Unicorn in a World of Donkeys offers a playbook for living a creative and authentic life. Using her own story as a launching spot, and creative quizzes, charts, and lists to engage the reader in an interactive journey, Mia Michaels explores the experience of the unicorn in a world of donkeys, a world where fitting in, pleasing others, following rules, and maintaining norms -- no matter how messed up those norms are -- is the only acceptable path. She acknowledges the struggles of the unicorn life -- loneliness, ridicule, being misunderstood and undervalued -- and goes on encourage readers to reframe the unicorn life the way she has, as essential to a life of brilliance." -- Amazon.ca.
