Andrew and Corinne Campbell (Chuck Wicks and Sunny Mabrey) decided to give up City life and move to a farm with their children Max and Izzy (Christian Finlayson and Abby James Witherspoon).

That all changes however when Nancy (Charlene Tilton) arrives at the Carnival with a rescued white pony, which Izzy immediately sees for what it is, a Unicorn, which she names “Snowflake”.

All the other children see it’s a Unicorn too, so the petting Zoo becomes a great success, so much so that greedy fair owner Horace (Ed Marinaro) steals Snowflake and goes to a neighbouring town.

So, it’s up to Izzy and Max to mount a rescue mission and bring Snowflake home where it belongs.
