About this audiobook

Amy Krouse Rosenthal and Brigette Barrager reunite to bring us a sparkly, magical sequel to Uni the Unicorn!

The Land of Unicorns is in trouble -- it has been raining and raining for what seems like forever. This is a big problem because there are only three ways that unicorns can get their magic: from the golden sun, from magnificent rainbows, and from the sparkle of believing.

Luckily, Uni the Unicorn has always always always believed...that little girls are REAL. Join this very special unicorn and the little girl who believes right back as they finally meet and work together to save a magical land and all who live there!

Amy Krouse Rosenthal and Brigette Barrager reunite to revive this world glowing with possibility and hope that is the stuff of childhood fantasies.

    The world lost an amazing Children’s author when Ms. Rosenthal passed. This was one of her later stories. It’s about believing in magic, and magic believing in you. The illustrations are a perfect dreamy quality to go with this dreamy story.

    The land of unicorns is besieged by never-ending rain, so the unicorns lose their glow and power. Only Uni retains any magic because of her deep belief that little girls are in fact real. Meanwhile, far away a little girl dreams of unicorns. Will a little magic help them find each other?

    This book is apparently the follow up to a previous picture book simply titled Uni the Unicorn. I'm not sure how much this one really relies on knowledge from that story, as it seems to more or less stand on its own. The plotline is fairly slim, and the text has little repetition and no rhyme nor any of Rosenthal's usual humor. The illustrations are reminiscent of 1990s Lisa Frank stickers -- full of rainbow colors, unicorns, and friendly animals. I could see some readers who like the overly twee enjoying this book, but it wasn't really my cup of tea. Even my 7-year-old niece who loves rainbows wasn't particularly thrilled by this title.

    Author Amy Krouse Rosenthal and illustrator Brigette Barrager return here to the magical world they created in Uni the Unicorn, opening as the land of unicorns is experiencing a continuous deluge of rain. This gray weather has serious consequences for the land's enchanted inhabitants, as unicorns draw their strength and magic from sunshine, rainbows, and "the sparkle of believing." Fortunately for all concerned, Uni the Unicorn believes with all her heart, and her wishes, together with those of the little girl in whom she believes, succeed in bringing unicorn and girl together. The rest of the unicorns, when they discover that Uni has been right all along, in her belief in little girls, are heartened, and the combined power of all of their wishes saves their land...

    Like its predecessor, Uni the Unicorn and the Dream Come True, which is due out later on this year (2017), features a fun and fantastic story, one which inverts the usual order of things - usually it is little girls who insist that unicorns are real, not the other way around - and which presents a heartwarming and happy ending. Also like its predecessor, it features beautiful artwork, with a lovely color palette and cute-as-a-button characters. Despite appreciating the color, my favorite scene was the one in which everything goes white and quiet, and Uni and the girl meet for the first time. It was somewhat poignant for me to read this, for reasons having nothing to do with the book itself, but with the recent death of the author. Leaving that aside, this is a book I would recommend to any young unicorn or fairy-tale/fantasy lover, as well as to anyone who enjoyed the first story about Uni the unicorn. I suspect it will be the last, unless Brigette Barrager teams up with a different author in the future...
