Books like A unicorn named Sparkle by Amy Young
Lucy is thrilled when she discovers a newspaper ad offering a unicorn. She submits her twenty‑five cents and waits four to six weeks for her very own mythical companion. Lucy envisions braiding flowers into Sparkle’s pink mane, hoping to create the perfect unicorn experience. When the animal finally arrives, she discovers that reality falls short of her fantasies: his ears are longer, his horn shorter, his scent is odd, and he is infested with fleas. The story follows Lucy’s effort to adjust her expectations and accept the quirks that come with caring for a magical pet.
