Luckily the unicorn has one more wish to grant . . .

With brilliant rhyming verse and bright and distinctive illustrations, Sugarlump and the Unicorn is a perfect story for reading together.

It was good because the unicorn could make wishes come true. She was really magical.

Sugarlump and the unicorn was a fantastic story, because Sugarlump explored and he was a rock-a-bye horse and didn't like being it, so he tried something else until he found something that he really liked which was a fairground horse! Yes I would definitely recommend it.

I like that the unicorn can make wishes come true. The horse is very funny - it keeps wanting to be somewhere else.
