One little girl is determined to return her unicorn to its sparkly, non-spotty self but is not sure where to start. Can she solve this polka-dot problem?

We love all the books written by Diane Alber, and this one is fabulous. I love the creative combination of lessons this books shares with my kids, that of germs, caring for others and the healing nature of creating art. Creating Spot Art is fun and Never Let A Unicorn Get Spots is adorable! I also appreciate the added learning suggestions at the end of the book! Perfect for our homeschool!

I loved this book lots because the unicorn’s face kept on changing through the different pages. By Maisie aged seven.

My 8 yo & 5 yo read this, and several other books by the author, together one night after dinner. They liked the illustrations and the story.

I love how this book has a powerful underlying message that kids learn without even realizing it. Art heals. #love
