All of the young unicorn’s friends—the robin, the butterfly, and the squirrel—are certain who they are and know what they are meant to do in their lives. But the unicorn has never seen another like him… Determined to help the unusual-looking animal discover his identity, the robin, butterfly, and squirrel come together to help the lonely unicorn find his sense of belonging. Following a mysterious melody, the unicorn embarks on a journey through the mountains, leading him to Unicorns of the North, South, and East, helping him discover his identity as the Unicorn of the West.
