The unicorn smells nice, but she is very rude. She never waits for an invitation to come over - she walks right in and tracks heart-shaped hoof-prints across the carpet. She sits in Elizabeth’s chair and makes a complete mess of the house. She even sleeps in Elizabeth’s bed.
Unicorns aren't scared of anything, but Elizabeth is scared of lots of things, especially starting school. In a surprise ending, Elizabeth confronts her first day jitters and embraces the things she's good at. A Unicorn Came to Dinner invites parents and their kids to talk about feelings worries and anxiety - and ultimately how to be yourself.
