Customer Reviews

a nice pony book

This is a good story of a girl who's family rents a small house and barn for the summer. Although the girl does not have her own horse, she leases one from her riding school to have there with her. This is the story of how she finds a hidden valley where her neighbor keeps a herd of beautiful show ponies. Full of colorful description and adventure, this story is a perfect getaway- and has a happy ending.
