101 Ways to Use a Unicorn

Fans of the magical unicorn are legion, and the unicorn’s appearance in pop culture shows no signs of waning. This book presents lighthearted, slightly twisted, and always funny practical uses for a unicorn.

Everyone loves unicorns—what’s not to love? They’re beautiful, magical creatures. Author Robb Pearlman and illustrator Dave Urban join twistedly hilarious forces once again to create 101 Ways to Use a Unicorn, their follow-up to 101 Ways to Kill a Zombie. This latest book is a manual of sorts, detailing creative ways to employ the neighborhood unicorn in everyday life. The methods range from the practical to pop cultural to slightly dark—but all are laugh-out-loud funny:

• Hunger Games: the unicorn is an arrow being shot out of a longbow by a teenage girl
• Bookmark: the unicorn’s horn is between the pages of a closed book on a nightstand
• Clothesline: a clothesline is strung between the side of a house and the unicorn horn, as a housewife hangs clothes
• Award Ceremony Seat Filler: the unicorn is in a tuxedo, seated between Angelina Jolie and Meryl Streep
• Jedi: the unicorn’s horn is lit up like a light saber in a fight with Darth Vader

Equal parts satire and tribute to this beloved mythical animal, 101 Ways to Use a Unicorn is sure to tickle unicorn fans young and old.
