Main Elements Unicorns




There’s an age-old tale that magic unicorns exist . . . wandering where orchids grow within the mountain mist.

Legend has it that the only way to find a unicorn is to know where to look and how to craft a beautiful gift that shows her you are a friend. If you’re lucky, she may even take you for a ride! So, gather some natural craft supplies like daisies, vines, ferns, apples, and grass, and get ready to find a magical new friend. If your heart is pure, you just might discover a unicorn in the wild. By being resourceful, careful, and kind, you can make beautiful riding gear from nature that will show your unicorn friend you truly care—and you may even be taken on an incredible ride through sunny meadows, over sparkling oceans, and along the brilliant arcs of rainbows!

Sue Fliess’s poetic read-aloud text and Simona Sanfilippo’s vibrant, whimsical illustrations will provide much fun for young readers eager to find their own unicorn friends! Also included are guides for teachers and parents about how to engage children in building unicorn-riding gear, how to interest them in the natural world, and a brief history of unicorns.




Ah...there's something wrong with this unicorn's face, if it weren't for that, I think I might actually like the art though the unicorn is more stumpy than graceful. I have to admit when building the bridle and riding the unicorn I could only think of the movie Legend and what happens when a mortal touches a unicorn. But there's a happy ending as the children let the unicorn go since she's a creature that cannot be kept.

At the end of the book there are instructions to make a daisy chain, you know, I never knew how to do that, so that was kind of neat.
