Baby Unicorn and Baby Dragon have no magical powers. How can they escape the Wicked Elf?




What a lovely book, I wish I could keep it! The illustrations are wonderful and the tale is fun. Star and Moon are best friends, but one day Star finds Moon crying because his wings haven't grown yet even though dragons younger than him already have theirs. Since dragon wings come out when the dragon is being brave, Star and Moon seek and adventure to prove their bravery, and getting an old dragon's tooth back from the Wicked Elf would be just the thing. However things don't go as expected and Star loses her horn and gets turned into a little pink frog! But Moon proves he can be brave even as he cries. And Star discovers that even without a horn she still has a brain and doesn't have to rely on magic to solve her problems.

This is actually the second book in the Baby Unicorn series, of which there are just two books, but I couldn't find the first one anywhere, hopefully one day I will.
