Teen, YA or Older Reader Unicorn Book Feature -Wish Upon A Unicorn (Unicorn Fantasy Series Book 1) by Vicki Blum
When Arica falls through a crack in her grandmother’s kitchen floor, she finds herself in a strange world of fairies, trolls, elves and — best of all — unicorns. But the trolls and their evil master, Raden, take her prisoner, just as they have the unicorns. Fortunately, Arica discovers that she can hear the thoughts of the unicorns, in a way that no one else in this world seems able to. With the help of Wish, a playful young unicorn, Arica sets out to free the captives — and discover the true reason she was brought to this magical world.

Christine Meunier4.0 out of 5 stars Will appeal to younger readers Reviewed in Australia on February 4, 2015Verified Purchase
Nine year old Arica felt there was something unusual about her grandmother, but it wasn’t until a visit to water some plants resulted in her slipping through a crack and into another world, that she realised her feelings were fact. Having been kidnapped by two trolls, Arica discovers a world of unicorns, elves, fairies and evil trolls.
As Arica is taken through this unusual land astride a captured unicorn, she questions what the trolls could possibly want with a human girl. When they arrive at their destination, she is dismayed to find that she will continue to be held captive, enslaved to work in a mine. To make things worse, the elves that are also enslaved, want nothing to do with her.
Arica finds assurance with the captive unicorns, but cannot explain how she can understand their thoughts. Desperate to escape and get back home, Arica is determined to befriend the elves and find a way home, and the reason she came to be in this unusual land that has an evil fairy who seems so familiar.
Wish Upon a Unicorn is a great adventure about a young girl with an unusual gift. It is fast paced and finishes well. I have no doubt it will appeal to the younger reader.
GoodReads Review
Shawnna rated it really liked it · review of another edition Shelves: personal-literacy-history
This was one of the first fantasy novels I ever read. It’s about a young girl transported to another world when she falls through the cracks in her grandmother’s basement. It’s a well-crafted story that emphasizes family, friendship, loyalty, and redemption. I read it when I was about six and it definitely influenced my interests! It is one of the many books my parents bought for my sister and I when we were growing up; reading has always been a priority in our household.
