Afro Unicorn: A Magical Parade

PreS-Gr 2–The Afro Unicorns prepare to celebrate the Day of Crowns, an annual and highly anticipated festival. After donning special crowns that make them feel their best, the trio of Unique, Divine, and Magical make their way to town, in awe of the crowds and colors that surround them. A new unicorn approaches the friends and is extremely upset that she has lost her crown. The friends quickly offer her comfort and devise a plan to create a sparkling new crown. The new friend adores the crown and asks Unique, Divine, and Magical to lead the parade with her. Fans of “Uni the Unicorn” will thoroughly enjoy this series, with its charming and colorful illustrations on every spread. The text features ample use of sight words, along with new vocabulary spaced generously throughout the story.
