Margaret's Unicorn

When Margaret's family moves to a cottage by the sea to be near her grandma, everything feels new. One evening she spots a mist over the water, but it isn't mist at all. It's unicorns, descending onto the shore! They vanish as quickly as they came, leaving behind a baby unicorn tangled in the weeds.

Margaret brings him home and cares for him through fall and winter, chasing waves, stomping frozen puddles and building snow unicorns, until spring comes and his family returns. Briony May Smith's enchanting picture book is a gentle story of friendship, letting go and finding home, with all the feel of a classic.
