They all had a celebration and realized that there was no reason to be afraid of each other. Even though they are very different, they could still be friends.
“Magic on Bagel Mountain” by Connie Clanton leads young readers away into the land of Crieve, where dinosaurs live at the bottom of a mountain and unicorns live at the top—each group believing frightening rumors about the other. Proudly published by Citi of Books, this book is now available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and other major retail platforms.
Connie Clanton is a retired elementary school teacher. She has always loved books and is an avid reader herself. Her inspiration for Magic on Bagel Mountain came from her grandchildren, Harvey and Gwendolyn. They are always asking her to tell them stories about dinosaurs and unicorns, so she decided to write one in a book.
“Magic on Bagel Mountain” by Connie Clanton is a charming children’s story filled with dinosaurs, unicorns, glowing mountaintops, and one brave decision that changes everything. Harvey the dinosaur has always heard that magical creatures at the top of the mountain turn dinosaurs into colorful rocks. Meanwhile, Gwendolyn the unicorn has been warned that dinosaurs will gobble her up! When curiosity pulls them toward each other, their world is turned upside down in the best possible way.
This sweet adventure is perfect for children, especially those who love imaginative creatures, colorful settings, and stories about friendship. Parents, grandparents, and teachers will appreciate how naturally the book opens conversations about fear, stereotypes, and making thoughtful choices. It’s playful enough to keep little ones entertained, yet meaningful enough to spark real discussion.
What makes this story shine is its simple but powerful message: sometimes what we’re told isn’t the whole truth. Harvey and Gwendolyn both grow when they choose trust over panic. In everyday life, we’ve all had moments where we assumed the worst about someone new—at school, work, church, or in our neighborhoods—only to discover we were wrong. This story gently reminds readers that courage often starts with a single step (or wing flap!) toward understanding.
If you’re looking for a bedtime story that’s imaginative, heartwarming, and quietly impactful, this one deserves a spot on your shelf. It’s the kind of book kids will want read again and again—and one that adults will secretly love just as much. Bagel Mountain isn’t just magical… it’s meaningful.
