This cute and little book will indeed make anyone happy because it contains adorable illustrations and a lot of motivational advice. The recommendations are the usual ones we always hear and read but, the unicorn is a great addition to put a smile on anyone's face. If you're looking for mood booster, this picture book might be the solution you're looking for. It will not only cheer you up, it will also uplift your self-esteem and will inspire you to do what is good and right.

What a super book. I honestly thought that I was going to dislike it but it had the total opposite effect. It is silly, funny and thoughtful. The ideas is positivity made me chuckle. I am now off to become a unicorn!

A big thank you to NetGalley for the ARC. I am voluntarily reviewing this book. I like the cover. Hmmm not sure about the rest. Is this a children's's book? A satire? If you like unicorns then this is for you. I found this to be rambling. I am not sure if s is supposed to be inspirational or not. Why is Trump 's name in the book? That made me question the entire thing. It seems innocent and then there is silly bathroom humor. Not my cup of tea.

This is such a happy little book!! I love this unicorn, his wisdom, his humor, and the fun drawings that accompany the text. Adults and children alike will love this book - it's impossible to read it and not smile and feel uplifted!

A reminder of the marvels of positivity, self-care, and knowing that you are perfect just the way you are. Things may go wrong, but there's something good waiting for you just around the corner. So read this book and be a unicorn - it would be awesome if we had a world full of unicorns!!

Many thanks to NetGalley and Andrews McMeet Publishing for allowing me to read an E-ARC of this wonderful little book!!

On a very rainy dark day in Wales I read this book and it's cheered me up so I wanted to share my love for this book for the other unicorn lovers out there or anyone that wants some cheery cuteness in their lives right now.
This is a colourful fun book filled with positivity and a smiling unicorn who occasionally laughs till she wees.
I will be buying a physical copy for my bookshelf to look whenever I need a boost of joy and positivity.

A lovely short romp of happiness with unicorn. There’s loads of lovely funny illustrations and funny little skits. A very short read but perfect for anyone who needs a wee pick me up.

I so desperately wanted to enjoy this book. I mean, the description alone calls it "adorkable"...which really draws a person in. That being said, it just didn't do anything for me. I expected cheesy unicorn drawings (I saw the cover in advance), so it's not like I was expecting more than what the book gave, but they were "eh". I gave it three stars because I didn't hate it, I didn't love it...it was just absolutely middle of the road for me.

This was a completely delightful book. Ok, it was more than that - I finished reading it and I can't stop smiling. (I mean, look at that cover!!)

This is mostly a picture book and is about 100 pages. It is about Unicorn and his rules of life and how to (as the title says) live life on the bright side. It is smart, and wise, cute and basically hilarious. (There were a few times I was laughing so hard, I had tears running down my cheeks!)

Let's face it, things sorta suck these days - there is bad news every day or so it seems. It is easy to get sad and feel bad about things. In my opinion, anything that can bring joy to your day is very welcome. This book did just that.

I mean, unicorns are awesome. But Unicorn (in this book) is super cool. He is totally a unicorn I would like to hang out with. We share a love of cake, Morrisey and Frida Kahlo and colouring. I feel like we would be BFFs. (Right....it's not an actual real person or unicorn!)

If you are looking for something to put a smile on your face, this is the book for you. I do feel like I could go back to this if I needed a smile. I also think it would be a cute gift for a friend who needs a pick me up.

I rated this 4/5 stars on Goodreads.

Full disclosure: I received this eARC from NetGalley for a fair and honest review. (Thanks NetGalley!)

Unicorn is full of love and positivity, be like Unicorn! This is a cute gift book with great advice, like enjoying the rainbow instead of wasting time looking for pots of gold. But be warned, Unicorn's contagious smile is a little bit scary.

Be a Unicorn and Live Life on the Bright Side would be a great gift book to brighten someone's day, or stocking stuffer for your local unicorn fiend. It's a colourful, cute, fun and quick read that you could come back to to chill out with the unicorns. I received my copy from NetGalley.com for review, and these are my honest opinions. #indigoemployee

What a gorgeous little book, the colours and set up are delightful and it certainly lit up my day. I have purchased a copy for a relative since reading this.

I adore the characterisation of the unicorn, very cute, and you'd be hard pressed not to smile, or even give a chuckle whilst reading this.

The Unicorns Rules for a Good Life are an excellent source of advice on the way to live your life. Heart warming, self caring and very positive. I love them and have already returned to them a good few times.

This is definitely a very positive, funny, and loveable book for any fan of Unicorns, and/or those in need of a bit of self care. A great gift idea. I will be sharing the love!

Thank you to Netgalley and Sarah Ford for my advance copy in return for my honest opinion.

Review copy provided by Netgalley in exchange for an honest review. This was so fun and full of words of wisdom! A book of positivity!

This is a fun book that would work for both adults and children. For an adults, it is a reminder of things that will help them live happier. For kids, it'll be a colorful book with advice that won't seem like advice because the colorful illustrations will be their main focus, and the message of the words can slip in without seeming preachy.

This book is not only about a unicorn, but it is a unicorn! It’s uplifting, delightful and guaranteed to put a smile on your face. It would make a great gift to a friend in need of a smile or laugh. The illustrations are equally as delightful and adorable as the text.

This book is so bright and cute! It's nice to see a book targeted at adults in the form of a children's picture book.

Unicorn is upbeat, confident and happy. This book is all about unicorn's positivity when looking at the world. It's uplifting and sure to brighten up a bad day.

THANK YOU to the author and Netgalley for giving me the opportunity to read this magnificent little book. I am still smiling!
Like the unicorn I also find rubbing cats's ears to be therapeutic and am happiest when I don't step in the poop. This book just made me happy!

I loved the colors and illustrations and just slowing down to enjoy a little unicorn magic in my life.
