Unicorn Princesses series.
Illustrated by
Sydney Hanson.
In these chapter-book fantasies, unicorn-believer Cressida visits the Rainbow Realm, a magical land ruled by unicorn princesses, where the human girl saves the day during various royal crises (e.g., she helps Princess Sunbeam restore her magical powers in Shine). The simple language, plentiful illustrations, and themes of teamwork and believing have appeal, but some plot points feel forced and conflicts are wrapped up a little too tidily. Review covers these Unicorn Princesses titles: Bloom's Ball, Flash's Dash, Prism's Paint, and Sunbeam's Shine.
