Once upon a time, a unicorn named Pippa lived in a magical glen. Her two very favorite things in the world were food and her friends.
One of Pippa’s favorite foods was pizza. She loved it so much that she wanted to make it herself, but she didn’t know how! Who could teach her? She decided to go to the village and ask her friends.
Pippa went to visit Alex the cheese maker.
“Can you teach me how to make pizza?”
Pippa asked.
“I love pizza,” said Alex, “but I don’t know how to make it. Would you like to try some of my cheese?”
Pippa politely said, “No, thank you.”
Pippa headed to the farm, where Mei the farmer was watering her peppers, onions, spinach, and tomatoes. “You can share my vegetables,” said Mei, but she didn’t know how to make pizza either.
Now Pippa was very hungry and worried! Could none of her friends teach her how to make pizza? She decided to walk to the castle.
On the road to the castle, Pippa came across Fiamma the dragon.
“Do you know how to make pizza?” asked Pippa hopefully.
“No,” said Fiamma, “but I know how to breathe fire.”
That night, Pippa the unicorn went to bed tired, happy, and excited to learn how to do more things with her friends the next day.
