The author, Kathleen, wrote this story when she was ten years old!

Highly edited since then, the last three stanzas haven’t changed in 34 years! With a highly creative imagination, Shields’ used her love of unicorns, Care Bears and magic to share a story that illustrates the innocence of a child. Her father encouraged her to publish “Unibear” for thirty years. He believed so highly in this story he’d bring it up in conversation often. Three years to the date of her father’s passing, Kathleen released this book in honor of his memory. It’s stellar start made a “Sad Day into a Glad Day”

*Also check out the black and white coloring book that has the same wonderful story, but gives an activity for the child to take part in.
