What is a unicorn?

A unicorn is a mythical animal having the body of a horse and a single, long horn extending from its forehead.

Unicorn horns, also called alicorns, are said to have magical powers! Some stories say they can heal people who are sick or even turn something plain into something delicious! Wouldn't it be cool if your veggies tasted like candy thanks to a unicorn horn?

Though unicorns are fast and strong, they are also gentle creatures. In some stories, they are so pure that only a kind and innocent person can get close to them. Imagine riding a fluffy white unicorn with a rainbow mane and tail across a magical land!

Unicorns aren't picky eaters, but their favorite food is something super sparkly: rainbows!
