Two Very Short, Entirely True Books

 
 

The Very Short, Entirely True History of Unicorns and its sequel, The Very Short, Entirely True History of Mermaids, recount the ways in which humans across time have cultivated stories and images of these mythical creatures. Unicorns and mermaids may not be real, but the idea of them is so powerful that it has its own place in the history of our world.
