Once upon a time there was a herd of Unicorn’s that lived in a field behind an old farmhouse.
Unicorns are very special creatures, for a start they are magic. They are invisible to everyone unless they especially choose you as a friend to be able to see them. In this herd no humans could see them as they wanted to remain hidden.
One Unicorn called Rosebud was younger than all the others and the older Unicorns wouldn’t let her join in with their Games. She was so lonely and sad that one day she decided to walk over to the farm and see if there was anyone to play with.
What she saw made her smile. It was the farmers’ daughter playing in the Garden all on her own and best of all she was pretending that she had a horse. The Unicorn thought ‘what if I could play with that little girl and be her real horse?’ So Rosebud went close to the little girl and shook some magic Unicorn dust on to her.
The little girl couldn’t believe her eyes, standing before her was the most beautiful shinning pink Unicorn. The little girl rubbed her eyes in disbelief then said ‘are you real?’ ‘Yes’ said Rosebud ‘I saw you playing and wondered if you would like to play with me?’
The little girl shrieked in laughter and shouted ‘I would love to play with you. My name is Gracie and I am 4. Come on let’s play’. Rosebud and Gracie played all day long; they had the best day ever.
At dinner time Gracie’s mum came out of the house and told her to come in for dinner. Gracie asked if her new friend Rosebud the Unicorn could come too. Her mummy said ‘don’t be silly Gracie, Rosebud isn’t real she is just pretend’. When Rosebud heard that she shook some magic dusk onto Gracie’s mummy.
In an instant Gracie’s mummy started rubbing her eyes as she saw the most marvellous Unicorn standing right in front of her. Then she looked around the farm and saw lots and lots of Unicorns. She nearly fell over when the Unicorn started to talk ‘I am real and I’m Gracie’s new friend’ said Rosebud.
‘Well then, you had better come for dinner. What do Unicorns eat?’ asked Gracie’s mum.
