Kurt is fed up. No surprise there, then. But now that horrid gnome Vladimir has diverted the stream in order to water his garden - all part of his attempt to win the gold medal at the Gnome Garden Show. He doesn’t care that the forest will dry out as a result. And so Kurt is forced to step in once more. But the gnome manages to trick him - and Kurt’s magical powers suddenly vanish! Well … they don’t exactly vanish, but they are reversed. And this is bad news, for if a unicorn’s magic goes wrong, then only the unicorn parents can put it right again. But Kurt is an orphaned unicorn …
- Kurt: one of the most popular characters of the unicorn trend.
- A fun story which will appeal equally to girls, boys and adults alike.

A greedy dragon has gobbled up the entire contents of the royal orchard, which means: no stewed apples for Kurt. Furious, Kurt chases the fruit-eating dragon away with a good dose of water magic - but the dragon takes his revenge by abducting Kurt. Kurt awakens in a labyrinth on a lonely island. There he has to face his worst fears (mice!) - without his magical powers, which have stopped working. Fortunately help comes his way in the form of Princess Flea, Trill, Superhero Toodleoo (the most romantic unicorn ever) - and a whole host of little mice. Can they work together to tame the dragon?
- Perennial favourite “dragon” theme will delight boys and girls alike.
- A treat for readers big and small.
- The fourth volume in the series based on Kurt the Reluctant Unicorn.

The Only Thing Worse Than Unicorns? Twonicorns!
Volume 2 of the fast-paced read-aloud best seller – Kurt defies all unicorn clichés!
Read-aloud enjoyment for children and adults alike
Too much unicorning! After freeing the Princess, Kurt wants a bit of peace and quiet. However, Trill’s little brother and the other animals are still imprisoned, so his hopes of having a rest are dashed. What follows is a horn-ruffling adventure in which Kurt only just manages to escape from the clutches of a love-struck pig with its sights set on the unicorn – and then a Twonicorn appears on the scene and even more chaos ensues. Of course, everyone lives happily ever after, and all the animals are freed. In Volume 2 of her series about the grumpy unicorn Kurt, Chantal Schreiber has again created a fast-paced read-aloud treat.

The unicorn craze? Totally pathetic! says Kurt.
A pesky bird, a princess who beats up the prince and Kurt, an unwilling unicorn who thinks, sparkly pink stars and rose-scented farts are totally pathetic – it’s enough to make you weep. But what’s the good of complaining? With a little help from Trill the bird and the ninja goldfish, unicorn Kurt will rescue kidnapped Prince Flea in the end, pink fur or none.
“Kurt is one thing above all else: amazingly funny! At last, here we have a different kind of story about unicorns and princesses. That Kurt is anything but your typical unicorn and that he finds everything a unicorn normally represents incredibly annoying, is the theme that runs right through the book and keeps the laughs coming right to the end.” - Buchkinderblog.de
