Hidden Treasure

This is the story of a girl who's creepy relative is forcing here to do something she doesn't want to, and threatening to take away her favorite pet if she doesn't do as she's told. Parents -- what does this sound like to you? My real problem with this book is the way this resolves. SPOILER ALERT! Princess Bella does what the evil queen asks, and doesn't tell her parents. She will get a stern talking-to, later, after the book is done. And her mom and the evil Queen Fire (the creepy relative) are reunited. There's a huge teaching opportunity lost here. Kids -- If someone is forcing you to do something that you know isn't right, they don't hold nearly as much power over you as you think! Tell a grown up you trust. Do you really think Princess Bella's parents -- a Queen and King!!! --- couldn't protect her and her unicorn! And there aren't too many mothers who are going to suddenly be on great terms with someone who just manipulated their child.

This is 1 of 3 purchased in series for a Christmas gift. Child is 8. She loves the 1st book of the series

My daughter loved this series of books especially since she is not big on reading. This book kept her interested. I bought her the Unicorn Magic series. She loved them. I would recommend this book as well as any of the other books written by Jessica Burkhart.

I cant wait to read this one to my little one. We have already read the others and it left us hanging ...

my daughter likes them
