In a magic forest, there was an invisible unicorn named Bella. She couldn’t be seen by anyone. Bella liked to walk around the forest, but she had to be careful. One day, she found a little squirrel that needed help. The squirrel was stuck in a tree.

Bella played a trick on the squirrel. She touched the squirrel with her invisible horn. The squirrel was scared and jumped down. They both laughed. Then Bella and the squirrel, named Sammy, became best friends. They had fun and learned new things from each other.

Bella felt sad sometimes because no one else could see her, only Sammy. One day, they found a place with talking flowers and butterflies that made music. A smart old owl lived there too. Bella told the owl she wanted to be seen by everyone.

The owl took them to a special pond and used magic dust to make Bella visible. Now everyone could see her! Bella was very happy. She learned that real friends don’t care about how you look. Now Bella had lots of friends and wasn’t lonely anymore. She knew that the most special things are felt with the heart.
