Guardians of the Wild Unicorns by Lindsay Littleson

5.0

Man, I am so overjoyed that this ended up being far more amazing than I ever thought possible and is a gorgeous children's book to feed their imagination. It is a heart-warming, lovely read for all ages, and as it can often be difficult to engage youngsters and foster a reading habit this may be a suitable place to start for those with an interest in beautiful mythological creatures such an unicorns.

What I really wasn't expecting was it to be as powerful and gripping for me as an adult who tends to pick up rather a lot of gritty crime capers, so this was refreshingly light and breezy tale right from get-go. Not only that but there is a wise message within its pages, too. A timely, topical reminder of the precarious nature of wildlife/animal conservation and how we humans play a huge role in the active management of our planet.

So come and join best friends and confidence Lewis and Rhona as they go on a magic-filled adventure in order to save the elusive, enigmatic unicorns from extinction. Many thanks to Kelpies for an ARC.
