Afronia is known for being bright and colourful, but what happens when a disgraced unicorn wants to take the colour away? Join unicorn best friends Divine and Unique as they journey to save Afronia in this all-new, action-packed graphic novel that celebrates Black joy and beauty. This new series is based on the hit lifestyle brand, Afro Unicorn!

Welcome to the mystical land of Afronia, where life is good and full of colour. Unique and Divine are two unicorns who can't wait to celebrate the annual Festival of Crowns. But on the way to the festival, they come across Castle Monotonic, which is home to the mysterious Madame Imperious who wants to drain all the color from Afronia. It's up to Unique and Divine to save Afronia, or else their magical land might be doomed.

This full-colour graphic novel is great for young readers beginning their graphic novel journey and graphic novel enthusiasts alike. It also features a Dyslexia-friendly font.

When Afro Unicorn creator April Showers realized that her favourite emoji—the unicorn!—was only available in white, she was inspired to create a more inclusive brand for children of colour to celebrate how magical, unique, and divine they truly are.
 
April Showers is the founder and CEO of Afro Unicorn, a brand designed to remind women and children of color how unique, divine and magical they truly are. Multiple business owner and single mother of two, April started a movement of like-minded Black Unicorns through apparel and accessories in May 2019. In May 2022, she launched in Walmart as the first Black woman & first Black licensed brand in Party Supplies for a major retailer. The Afro Unicorn brand is now featured in stores nationwide with children's apparel, drink-ware, toys, and holiday merch. April's passion is to teach others how to develop their brands—with a goal to help everyone win.
