Velda the Awesomest Viking and the Wild Unicorn Chase

By David MacPhail

Join Velda as she sets sail on a wild voyage of daring, discovery and er, unicorn doo-doo, all while proving she's the awesomest Viking around A hilarious illustrated chapter book.

Velda is a tiny warrior with a big axe and an even bigger attitude. Some people don't think girls can be proper Vikings. Velda doesn't agree

When Velda's beloved axe is taken hostage by a troublesome (and extremely stinky) troll, Velda and her misfit crew discover there's only one way to defeat him: a special potion made of unicorn horn. Except, unicorns are extinct, aren't they...?

Legend says that a herd of the mindreading, magical and frankly fabulous-smelling creatures may still exist in remote Pictland. But Velda's not the only one looking for them, and this enemy wants more than just their horns. Can Velda and her chaotic crew save both her axe and the unicorns, before it's too late?
