Unicorn Surprise!

Lift the flaps and meet a magical cast of unicorn friends in this interactive unicorn lift-the-flap board book for babies and toddlers. With soft felt flaps, a surprise mirror ending, and a gentle rhyming story, Unicorn Surprise! turns storytime into hands-on discovery, bonding, and joyful early learning.

Every page of Unicorn Surprise! is an invitation—for little hands to explore, for little ears to listen, and for the two of you to share a moment that matters. This lift-the-flap unicorn board book was made for babies and toddlers, and for the caring adults who read board books aloud to them.

• Soft felt flaps that little hands love to lift. Each flap reveals a friendly unicorn surprise, building hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills through sensory play that feels like pure magic.
• Humor is a real developmental skill—and Highlights is the expert on it, even for the youngest readers. The playful characters and giggle-worthy surprises on every page help babies and toddlers discover the joy of being silly together.
• Rhyming text designed for reading aloud together. The gentle, rhythmic story makes this unicorn board book easy and natural to share, supporting early language development and listening skills one cozy reading at a time.
• A mirror ending where the silliest baby-corn of all makes an appearance. Little ones love practicing their best silly faces in the final-page mirror — a joyful moment of self-discovery that makes every reading of this interactive board book feel brand new.

What your little one won’t know—and doesn’t need to—is that every giggle, every lifted flap, every silly face in that mirror is doing something. Building language. Building confidence. Building the kind of early relationship with books that shapes readers for life. Highlights has been trusted by families for more than 75 years to make that happen in the most delightful way possible.
