Description
Almost everyone knows what a unicorn is, but do you know where they came from? Who was the first unicorn? How did he get his golden horn? And why did others follow in his footsteps?
Aden is a young horse, who believes that giving of his time and gifts is the best way to share hope in the world. One evening, he is visited by an angel who bestows a gift of gold upon his forehead, “You cannot see or spend it. It’s for others to behold.” Yet, when he returns home that evening, the herd sees the horn as a weapon and chases him away.
Sad but not discouraged, Aden continues to help and care for others. However, when his mother gets injured, he discovers his horn can perform miracles. It was that first miracle that softened the hearts of the others and inspired them to lead a God-filled life as well.
This story is about love, acceptance, kindness and giving. It is the story of the First Unicorn and how God’s creation would succeed at greatness.
“Anything is possible if love is what you choose. Miracles can happen if you share the good news.”

A heartwarming children's book that teaches valuable lessons about love, kindness, and the power of miracles. Aden, a young horse, receives a golden horn from an angel, but when the herd misunderstands its purpose, he faces rejection and loneliness. Undeterred, Aden continues to spread hope and help others, discovering the miraculous abilities of his horn along the way. This enchanting tale beautifully illustrates the importance of accepting and embracing our unique gifts, as well as the impact of selflessness and compassion on those around us.

A delightful children's book that left me teary-eyed and inspired. Aden, the adorable young horse, is the epitome of kindness and love, and his story touched my heart. When he receives a mysterious golden horn from an angel, I couldn't wait to see what would unfold. The way Aden faces rejection but never loses hope is a lesson we can all learn from. It's a tale that encourages us to embrace our uniqueness and always strive to help others, no matter the challenges we face.
