A Unicorn Named Sparkle Read Free Books and Download eBooks
When Lucy sees an ad in the newspaper for a unicorn, she sends in her twenty-five cents and waits four to six long weeks for her very own unicorn to arrive. She imagines the flowers that she'll braid into his beautiful pink mane, and she even picks the perfect name for him: Sparkle. But when Sparkle arrives, his ears are too long, his horn is too short, he smells funny--and oh, he has fleas. Lucy isn't pleased, but in the end she warms up to Sparkle and realizes that even though he wasn't exactly the unicorn she wanted, he might be just the one she needs.

I just adore this book! It's a sweet theme and great illustrations. We all end up with the kind of pet we need instead of the one we wanted-great message. I am a teacher and can't wait to share this one with my Kinder students-I know they will love it too!
The title intitially put me off the book but after reading the description, I decided it was worth checking out. It's a really cute story about what happens when a pet doesn't live up to our expectations but still wins our affections. My almost three year old really enjoys this book!
such a cute book about a girl and her goat.... I mean unicorn ;)
A thoroughly delightful book. Wonderful illustrations combined with a sweet story that has a nice message for all.
