About this deal

Hello Yellow - 80 Books to Help Children Nurture Good Mental Health and Support With Anxiety and Wellbeing - Unicorn NOT Wanted is one of those adorable books with unexpected characters popping up over and over again. There were several moments I was grinning ear-to-ear even if it was a touch predictable.

Douglas Ross accused of ‘thinly-veiled homophobia’ after

Children's books are saturated by unicorn right now! It' ok though - this book is absolutely 100% not about unicorns. Unicorns aren't allowed, or pugs! The author has made sure by setting the story in The Wild West. No unicorns (or pugs) live in The Wild West do they?! Well you'd think not but there's a dynamic duo waiting to scupper the authors plans. Unicorn and pug are desperate to be in the story and they do their very best to disguise themselves. However, the author isn't fooled and tries to remove the pair from the story. Thank you to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing for this advanced reader copy. My review is voluntarily my own. Thank you to Quarto Publishing Group – Frances Lincoln Children's Books, Happy Yak, and NetGalley for an advanced copy of this book. If you are a liar, it is said a unicorn will pierce you through the heart with its horn, which is blunter than it looks, so this would not be a particularly fun way to go. I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own."My unicorn loving 4 year old adored this book - she was in fits of giggles and love the illustrations. As the parent reading, I wish it had a little more to the story, it seemed rather abrupt.. but I would still recommend for all the unicorn and pug loving littles in your life!

Unicorns *Not* Wanted offers a fun response to the current cultural obsession with unicorns. I really enjoyed the playful art style and the silliness of how the unicorn and pug disguised themselves in an effort to try to be included in the book. Julius Caesar said he saw one in a forest in Germany during his conquest of Gaul, and Marco Polo said he saw one too, but that one turned out to be a rhinoceros. Disappointing.

Unicorn NOT Wanted is the best unicorn-free unicorn book. My 7 year old son laughed out loud and demanded we read it again. That is the highest praise a children's book can receive. Armistice Day: A Collection of Remembrance - Spark Interest and Educate Children about Historical Moments Unicorn NOT Wanted is the perfect solution for those who are tired of unicorns. It's also very fun to read out loud, although my dog was concerned about the waaaaaahhs. Appreciation is extended to the author, to Quarto Publishing Group - Frances Lincoln Children's Books, and to NetGalley, who provided access to this title in exchange for an honest review. The words I have voluntarily shared are my own.This is an anti-unicorn, unicorn story, which pokes fun at the never-ending stream of unicorn books, but then becomes what it sets out not to be... thanks to a unicorn intruder! Thank you to Fred Blunt, NetGalley, Quarto Publishing Group – Frances Lincoln Children's Books for offering access to this copy in exchange for my honest and voluntary review! This isan anti-unicorn, unicorn story, which pokes fun at the never-ending stream ofunicorn books, but then becomes what it sets out not to be... thanks to a unicorn intruder! Unicorn NOT Wanted is a lively, charming book which recalls the tale of a unicorn and a pug as they continuously insert themselves into the narrator's story about the Wild West. The illustrations are bright and fun, and the humour will surely entertain young readers. Definitely, a book I would recommend.

I think that this would be a perfect book in preschool and prekindergarten classrooms. Younger students will be drawn in with the colorful illustrations and the comical characters of the story. Fred never wanted to be an astronaut or drive a train when he grew up. Right from the beginning he knew he wanted to draw silly pictures for a living... and some decades later he's living the dream!Author/Illustrator Fred Blunt wants to write a simple book set in the Wild West. He wants to write about cowboys and a sheriff and maybe a deputy. He wants horses and cacti. The Dukes of Nofolk have always carried a bag made from unicorn hide when performing their duty as Earl Marshal at the state opening of Parliament. For the rest of the year it is displayed in a glass case in the Barons' Hall at Arundel Castle and can only be handled with special 'magic' gloves. My Final Say: Kids will adore this book. Families will have a great time together as they read through this work. Librarians will rush to add this title to their story time hour. Lovers of kid lit will totally appreciate the ADVENTURE, DRAMA, ACTION, and...COWBOYS! (See what I did there? 😁)
