Book description
Fresh, cotton-candy-colored illustrations and important messages about being yourself and kindness towards others makes this adorably cute unicorn story a tasty treat kids will love. A fun read-aloud for fans of The Teeny-Weeny Unicorn and for anyone that’s ever felt different or misunderstood will fall for this winning picture book. Wee Unicorn isn't what everyone expects in a unicorn. She's noisy, and she's not magical. She feels misunderstood. Then she meets another misunderstood creature—a monster others are scared of—and she reacts in an unkind way. Will she be able to make things right? A bright, inviting world of colors and creatures, Wee Unicorn is pure eye candy—it dazzles and sparkles with its messaging of not making assumptions and loving who you are. Readers young and old will very much relate to feeling different and misunderstood while falling hard for this irresistible unicorn read-aloud! ReviewThis sprightly story centering on a fantastical creature meetup spotlights self-acceptance. With a loud voice and helpful nature, Wee Unicorn struggles with a single problem: “She wasn’t what everyone expected a unicorn to be. Wee Unicorn WASN’T magic.” Friendly mountain giants reassure, “Just do your own thing,” but it takes repeat encounters —one frightening and one conciliatory—with a loch creature of lore for the horned heroine to embrace her own kindheartedness. As Wee follows a path toward self-discovery, McLaren weaves in classic fairy tale entities: fluttering fairies offer commentary, selkies provide conflict, and a comic side plot spins an origin story for the Loch Ness “monster”’s name. Cool-toned artwork has the appealing look of screen printing, amplifying the takeaway that belief in oneself is a beautiful thing. —Publishers WeeklyAbout the AuthorMeg McLaren is an author, illustrator, and printmaker who graduated from Cambridge School of Art with a master's in Children's Book Illustration.

Meg likes to work digitally and in screen print. When she's not up to her eyeballs in ink, she's usually found in front of an afternoon mystery drama. Meg lives with her better half, Jon, who makes a lot of tea, and their dog, Wilson, who makes a lot of messes.
