What does the Pageticker team say about The Naughtiest Unicorn?

The Naughtiest Unicorn launches Pip Bird's cheerful Unicorn School series with a gloriously grumpy hero who prefers snacks, silliness and the occasional spot of chaos to behaving like a proper magical companion. Mira's growing friendship with Dave gives the story a warm heart, whilst the short chapters, lively illustrations and humour make this an appealing choice for newly independent readers and unicorn fans.

What is The Naughtiest Unicorn about?

Mira is thrilled to start Unicorn School, but her assigned unicorn, Dave, is far from the sparkly companion she imagined. Grumpy and more interested in snacks than magical quests, Dave presents unexpected challenges. Determined, Mira teams up with her new friends and their glittery unicorns to embark on exciting adventures, aiming to protect their magical world. This humorous tale is perfect for young readers who love laughter and unicorns.
