The Unicorn Shore

The Unicorn Shore: The Secret of the Shell
Book One in a Magical Chapter Book Series for Young Readers

Nine-year-old Marigold always believed her grandmother Pearl’s stories about magic hidden in the waves. But during a visit to her grandmother’s beach cottage, nothing could prepare her for the moment she finds a shimmering seashell, shaped like a unicorn’s horn—and it whispers her name.

Swept away to the Unicorn Shore, a magical land where unicorns sparkle, seashells whisper secrets, and belief is the key to everything, Marigold discovers she’s been chosen to help with a dangerous mission. The magical bond between the Unicorn Shore and the human world is fading, and if it breaks, the connection between the realms will be lost forever.

With the help of a wise unicorn named Coral, a snack-loving sidekick called Nibbles, and the fastest unicorn on four hooves—Spark—Marigold must uncover an ancient riddle hidden in a forgotten lighthouse and face the powerful sea spirit know as Stormcaller.

Will Marigold be brave enough to believe in herself—and the magic within her?

Perfect for fans of fairy tales, friendship, and magical adventure, this is a heartwarming story of courage, belonging, and the power of believing in magic.
