[livejournal.com profile] entwashian and I got to talking, as we do, about unicorns.

"Hey," quoth [livejournal.com profile] entwashian, "Did you ever read those Bruce Coville unicorn books?"

"Oh yes!" quoth I. "The first book when I was nine and the second book about six million years later when it finally came out..." and I embarked on a quest through the dark internets to discover if the trilogy ever reached completion. "BTW do you know that the FOURTH book has just been published???"

We agreed that we had fallen tragically out of touch with the world of children's unicorn books.

And thus! Thus was born the Unicorn-Themed Children's Media Challenge, in which intrepid adult persons peruse unicorn books, watch unicorn movies, and contemplate sparkly unicorn stickers, in service of the beautiful cause of reinvigorating our unicorn knowledge. (Or perhaps the cause of superciliously sneering at the Degradation of the Unicorn Mythos, the way people bemoan the Degradation of the Vampire Mythos. Whatever floats your boat.)

Until we meet again...I am off to immerse myself in the glorious pages of Princess Isabella and the Snow White Unicorn!

No worries. The main tragic side effect is that now I want to read them all (it would only take about two hours...) and report back in great detail.

I will not, however, go so far as to join the actual Tiara Club (http://www.tiaraclub.co.uk/). That's just too much.
