Morris the unicorn is feeling down and he’s not sure why. He decides that the one thing that will make him better is a spell from a special magic book far away.
His journey is packed with wonders, as well as a chance to fully rest and switch off, and before he knows it, Morris is feeling back to his old self. It’s not the magic spell that helped, but meeting new friends, being kind to himself and doing things he enjoys.
This message is nicely reinforced by a map of Morris’ journey, pinpointing all the activities that helped him. Morris is an affable character – who wouldn’t want a unicorn as a best friend? – and his story will not just keep readers entertained, it will instil useful lessons for life too.
When Morris wakes one misty morning under the shadow of Dragon's Ridge, the kind-hearted unicorn doesn't feel well at all.
As he sets out on a quest to find a fabled 'Get Well Spell', he discovers the need to fill his own cup back up so that he can continue to share love and kindness and look after others.
