What is Summer Pony about?
Ginny is overjoyed when her parents agree to rent her a pony for the summer. She imagines long rides and a perfect new companion, but Mokey is not the beautiful, well-trained pony she expected. Shaggy, dirty and painfully thin, Mokey needs care before she can enjoy anything. As Ginny works to gain her trust and help her grow stronger, she discovers that caring for a pony brings unexpected challenges—and that a true friendship may be more rewarding than any dream.
