Unicorn in New York: Louie in a Spin
Rachel Hamilton (, Dubai, United Arab Emirates), Oscar Armelles (, Madrid, Spain)
Meet Louie, a unicorn in searching for stardom in New York City!
Louie’s dance moves always end in disaster, so when he mistakenly gets entered into a state-wide dance contest, he’s going to have to give it his all for a chance of winning.
Dear Mum and Dad
The New York School for Performing Arts is the perfect place for a unicorn like me. So far it has been totally AWESOME!
Madame Swirler is training me up for a HUGE dance competition. She keeps shouting ‘How will I train a unicorn with two left feet?!’ but lucky for her I have hooves, so we’ll be just fine.

A hilarious series, with a unique visual approach, combining real New York photography with character illustrations. Perfect for 7-9 year olds that love funny fiction and bonkers characters.

I loved this because it is funny. Louie isn’t a good dancer but mistakingly Arno the Unicorn who was supposed to be doing the ballet competition, enters Louie instead!

I liked the book it is about a unicorn and his friend who were keeping the dance secret. The unicorn entered for the dance category Frank Burped.

I think this book shows about a unicorn who performs art in a New York school Madame Swirl is training a new dance competition and she asks how can I do Ballet with unicorn feet.

This was an excellent book! I will admit maybe a bit childish but still great, about a unicorn named Louie who is accidentally on purpose entered into a dancing competition in the ballet section because fellow unicorn Arnie wants to see him fail miserably in front of a huge audience, who only then realizes that if Louie doesn't make it into the top three then the dancing school he and Louie go to will never be able to enter into the competition again in ANY category. So instructor Madame Swirler has to coach Louie one on one to perform the ultimate dance move, the leaping champion....so yeah, excellent book, good plot and for once, (spoiler warning) the hero LOSES! So yeah, just go read the book already...

This book is Hilarious and I love how he is quite a clumsy unicorn who thinks that he will be good at the ballet routine ! The reason why I gave it a 4 was because I like how he has very unusual friends but I didn't like how he thought that Arnie was his friend even though he always used to trick him

Louie In A Spin is a very good book. Louie is a unicorn at the New York school. I am not going to tell you what happens in the book as then you would know what happens and that wouldn't be fair because then you wouldn't find out for yourself. But I definitely think you should read it.

You should read this book if you like funny stories that have a twist to them. If you like a feel good story, then this is for you.

I rated this book 5 stars because it was really funny and I could not put the book down because I was always wondering what would happen this book. I recommend this book to people who like comedy books. I cannot think of anything that the author could have improved because I love Unicorn in New York books. I really want to buy the rest of the books because so far I absolutely love them. I think Rachael Hamilton is the best author. My old favourite author was David Walliams. Don't tell him that though!!!! Rachael you make the best and most funniest books EVER! (even better than David Walliams.) :)
