I would rather have a unicorn horn than a squirrel tail! First,unicorn horns are magical and you could have magic powers. Second, what if your unicorn horn is rainbow? That would be awesome! Finally, unicorns are magical and if you had a horn you would be magical too! Some may argue that a squirrel tail is better because they might not want to be magical. I chose to have a unicorn horn over a squirrel tail.
