Unicorn Fantasy for KidsA gripping fantasy-an exciting unicorn story-with elves, dwarves, unicorns and a brave heroine keen to face deadly dragons and evil tworns.For over two hundred years no one has dared attempt to enter the Deephaven caves-not since the two-headed, dragon-like tworns viciously attacked the dwarves who lived there and took the caves for their own. But since their overwhelming defeat at the Battle of the Snake everyone wants to know how many tworns are still alive. And there’s only one way to find out-do what no one has chanced for decades-disregard common-sense and venture inside the caves. Armed with not much more than her dragon-dagger and her courage, Kinsey makes the journey with Crimson, the wise and insightful unicorn, ever beside her. The cave-hating but tworn-ready young dwarf, Anvil Treegrasper, reluctantly joins them. However, ferocious tworns are not the only danger in their path. An unlikely but cunning spell master has one thought on his mind-steal the Pendant of Peace worn around Kinsey’s neck for his own deadly purposes. And he is closer than Kinsey could ever imagine, with a powerful black crystal full of evil enchantments that could destroy them all. An exciting juvenile fantasy featuring a strong female protagonist with a wise unicorn to guide her. Perfect for grade 3-5 (8-10 year olds), with an estimated lexile range of 610-760.
