Showtym Adventures 1: Dandy, the Mountain Pony (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This is Vicki's story about her first wild pony, Dandy. She was just 9 years old when the family brought home their first lot of wild horses-two stallions, a mare and a foal. One of those stallions was Dandy. Vicki had to have a lot of patience and courage to earn Dandy's trust. The family couldn't afford to buy food for the horses so three times a day they would pick barrow loads of grass from the side of the road. Great story for any child wanting a pony-it's not just about riding, there's a lot of hard work that goes into owning a horse.
