About this book
One fateful day, a young Sparrow Guide became lost in the woods. She fell asleep under the trees only to be woken by a unicorn farting a cloud of magical glitter onto her head!
The next day, she discovered to her surprise that she had grown a rainbow horn and developed superpowers. She had become… Super Unicorn Princess! The toughest (and cutest) superhero around!
Soar through the skies of Horizon City with this sparkly and fierce hero as she battles against ice cream monsters, ancient mummies, and an angry alien slug in three standalone adventures that rattle along with great pace and excitement.
Mike Hartigan’s debut graphic novel is funny, action-packed, and fabulous. The protagonist is a brilliant mix of rainbows, glitter and fun, along with heroism, determination and bravery.
This will have a wide appeal – especially for those looking for an alternative to the male heroes in other popular graphic novels in this age range.
