The Grumpy Ogre: A Diary of a Unicorn Adventure

An ogre’s moved into the neighborhood, and he’s not leaving! When two brave dwarves show up in Glitterville asking for Shiny Fluffy Hooves’ help in getting rid of an ogre, Shiny can’t wait to use her magic. Finally someone appreciates her! But her magic won’t work, the dwarves aren’t quite as brave as they say they are, and the ogre is really grumpy. On top of all that, they have to travel through elf country to get to the ogre, and elves and dwarves do not get along. Can Shiny find a way to take care of the grumpy ogre before she and her two dwarf companions become the ogre’s lunch?
