Goodreads

Gorgeous illustrations inspired by the Unicorn Tapestries held by the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and Cluny Museum in Paris. Unfortunately, the story was not as enchanting. When the huntsmen chase the unicorn, the creature finds his way into a secret garden in the forest and discovers a young lady who has powers more magical than his own. The writing is  simplistic and a bit far-fetched, even for a fairy tale. The afterword explaining the tapestries and highlighting the details in the hanging used in the book is very interesting. Readers in grades 1-3 will enjoy the pictures, but will not be wowed by the story.
