Chapter 1 "Do you know the difference between a unicorn and a carrot? One is a funny beast, and the other is a bunny feast!" Princess Pulverizer doubled over, laughing at the joke. Her buddy Lucas laughed along with her. "That's funny," he said. "There's a whole chapter of unicorn jokes in this book." Princess Pulverizer held up her copy of Unicorns from A to Z.

"We really need to focus on looking for Fortune's parents, and his whole herd," Dribble reminded her. "A unicorn's herd is called a blessing," Princess Pulverizer corrected him. "It would be a real blessing if you would start searching for unicorns," Dribble insisted. Princess Pulverizer really did want to find Fortune's family. After all, it was her fault he was separated from them. She was the one who'd lured him out of the woods and into plain sight, where he could be captured. But she hadn't meant to do that. She'd been tricked into helping an evil traveling showman named Ralf with his plot to capture a real unicorn. Ralf was very mean, and very greedy. He'd forced Fortune into a cage, which had made
