Where Have the Unicorns Gone?

Gorgeous story. I have read this book and this author to my 4th graders and this book mesmerized them . I bought this one for my granddaughter. She will love it. Such an amazing book by a loved author

If you want to know where the unicorns have gone, just make your way to the sea. This gorgeously illustrated poetic story helps children to understand that though our daily lives become eclipsed by modernity, we can always escape to a more wonderous and peaceful existence when we search out the natural world. Things we have forgotten or failed to notice can be reclaimed in the imaginations of the mind, but only if we search them out. Filled with stunningly beautiful art and rythmic words which flow off the tounge, this narrative about the wild and natural world verses the changing world from the turn of the century will generate interesting conversation with your little ones. My two daughters (ages 5 and 7 ) and I just checked this book out from the library last week. I am now purchasing it from Amazon because it is a "must have" for our personal library.

This was for my grandaughter is loves and collects books and stuffed animals of Unicorn and ponies. She was excited when she rec'd this book in the mail to her, though her mother had to read it to her she's only 6 yrs old.

Beautiful book purchased as a gift for someone who loves unicorn collectibles. She was thrilled to receive it. The illustrations would be inspiring to anyone who loves to paint.

Lovely book about Unicorns. Beautifully illustrated.

Good fantasy book

This is a sweet story about why the unicorns left and where they all went. Complete with beautiful pictures on every page.

girls are into this kind of stuff and it is written quiet well and the pictures are fabulous as well enjoy

The illustrations in this book are wonderful! The story is nice too, although some of the vocabulary is a bit advanced for children. For example, "...startled by turns of the clacketing mills, echoing hard through the catacombed hills...:. Words like "cataphonetics" and "wee wisplets"...might need some explaining to a young child.

Beautifully illustrated. Lilting poetry. I deeply appreciate the depth and challenge of this book's message.

Un très beau livre, avec des illustrations magnifiques. Pour le plaisir des yeux !
