The First Unicorn by Kathleen J. Shields is a delightful faith-filled tale of how the first unicorn came to be. Each page is beautifully illustrated by Aashay Utkarsh and complements the poignant poem contained in this early reader treasure. Short footnotes define difficult or unfamiliar words, and the reading level of this book ensures that elementary-age children will enjoy reading it to themselves. It's liberally laced with faith and encouragement to children to do the right thing, even when it's hard. The pacing is perfect, and the plot is engaging. Aden is a delightful character, and who doesn't like stories about horses and unicorns? At 50 pages, it is a swift read with an engaging story line and an eternal message. Perfect for young Christian readers and fans of fantasy, unicorns, and faith! Readers Favorite - Christopher Solaas
A delightful children's book that left me teary-eyed and inspired. Aden, the adorable young horse, is the epitome of kindness and love, and his story touched my heart. When he receives a mysterious golden horn from an angel, I couldn't wait to see what would unfold. The way Aden faces rejection but never loses hope is a lesson we can all learn from. It's a tale that encourages us to embrace our uniqueness and always strive to help others, no matter the challenges we face. Sue E. Reviewer Net Galley
