Who is in the story?
Read the story Easy English
Under a quiet and endless sky lived a unicorn named Uma. Uma had an unusual horn that shimmered in soft, uneven colors. The other unicorns had uniform, bright horns that lit up the forest. Uma's horn flickered in a strange way. Some unicorns said her light was unsteady, so Uma felt unsure and upset. She walked alone under the trees, wishing to fit in.
One unusual night, dark clouds covered the sky and a thick fog spread through the forest. The path home became unclear. The unicorns grew uneasy because their bright horns could not shine through the heavy fog. Everyone felt lost and afraid. Uma stood still and used her horn. Her light moved in soft, unique patterns. She gently asked the others to follow her light.
Uma walked slowly through the forest while her unusual light created a safe path. Step by step, she led the unicorns out of the fog and into an open meadow. Soon, the fog lifted and stars appeared. The unicorns smiled and thanked Uma for her useful light. Uma felt happy and proud. From that day on, the unicorns appreciated Uma as a kind friend.
