Illustrated by
Bimba Landmann.
Nicolo's family and teacher try to discourage him from daydreaming about unicorns, but finally his grandfather shows he understands the importance of a vivid imaginative life. Although the message is heavy-handed, the stylized artwork of both the Venice setting and Nicolo's dreamy encounters with his unicorn glows with an almost magical light. Touches of gold leaf give the illustrations extra sparkle.
