A brilliantly funny and heartfelt story about empathy,
kindness, celebrating what makes
us different, and...
unicorns!
I do not like smiling, I do not like cake,
I do not like ice cream (makes my tummy ache).
I stomp over rainbows and will not say 'Whoop!""
(and don't talk to me about unicorn poop).
If you think that all unicorns love rainbows
then think again, because this
unicorn most certainly doesn't!
In fact, there are a lot of things he doesn't
like, and he's going to tell you all about it...
So get ready, because you're about to meet an emo unicorn who
truly stands out from the crowd. And a special bunch
of friends who accept him for who he is.
From bestselling author of Unicorn and the Rainbow Poop
Shiny foil on the cover makes this a special gift
Bright bold illustrations - an explosion of colour!
A hilarious twist on the normally super-sweet unicorn books -
for kids who like to stand out from the crowd
