Get ready to discover the real story behind unicorns in the first in a brilliant new series from Sibeal Pounder, bestselling author of the Witch Wars and Bad Mermaids series. Neon is a unicorn - but she doesn' t know it!Unicorns live in the Uni-verse: a secret, parallel world that exists alongside ours. They are the most magical and powerful beings on the planet - but aside from their hidden stripe of neon hair, unicorns look just like you and me. The idea that they are horses with glittering horns is a big ruse, designed to distract humans from the real unicorns. Neon thinks she' s just an ordinary girl . . . until she receives a battered old lipstick in the post on her eleventh birthday. She' s amazed when drawing a line with it across a wall creates a sparkling portal to the Uni-verse. Here, the Unicorn Council badly need Neon' s help to defeat the arch villain Scarlet Ditto, who is hell-bent on destroying the unicorns and their world for good. If Ottie can pull off the mission, she' ll get to stay in the Uni-verse for ever. But what if she doesn' t really want to?
I adored not-at-all normal Neon and her madcap adventure * Joanna Nadin, author of The Worst Class in the World series * Neon' s Secret Universe is exactly what the world needs right now; a glorious, galloping, life-affirming stampede of pure multi-coloured joy [. . . ] Each and every page is a riot of stupendous silliness and breath-taking imagination. I want to go on holiday inside Sibeal Pounder' s head * Chris Smith, author of Kid Normal, The Great Dream Robbery and Frankie Best Hates Quests * Sibeal Pounder' s books are the most fought over in our house. They' ve brought so much joy and laughter and Neon' s Secret UNIverse is no exception. Fun, funny, magical and fizzing with imagination, my children and I have been pinching it off each other since it landed! * Sophie Anderson, author of The House with Chicken Legs * Bright, bubbly and never knowingly normal, Neon' s Secret Universe is a whirlwind of witty wonderful adventure! * Mo O' Hara, author of My Big Fat Zombie Goldfish and Agent Moose * Neon' s Secret Universe fizzes and pops with joyful hilarity. I laughed so much as I read it - and it made me want to become (the real kind of) unicorn! * Stephanie Burgis, author of The Dragon with a Chocolate Heart and The Raven Heir * Very sparkly storytelling and a lovely portrayal of friendship * Hilary McKay on TINSEL * This the most fun I' ve had reading a book in quite a while - the most inventive, crazy, yet hilarious read * Minerva Reads on WITCH WARS * Fizzing with fun * Daily Mail on WITCH TRICKS * You' ll laugh your tail off - another winner from our favourite author * Rob Biddulph on BAD MERMAIDS *
