GOLD award winner, MadeForMums Awards 2021

Have you ever imagined what it would be like to have a unicorn for a pet? Besides being much less angry than a troll and far more conveniently sized than a giant, unicorns only ever eat ice-cream for breakfast and every time you get upset they feed you candyfloss!

In this humorous, energetically rhyming tale, a little girl experiences exactly what life would be like with a magical creature for a pet. From sprinkling stardust on grumpy parents to sliding into football practice on a rainbow.

If I Had a Unicorn, the latest in the bestselling If I Had... series, celebrates the magic of unicorns in a way that will appeal to children who are allergic to pink.
