A Blue Ribbon for Sugar (Hardcover)

Description


Bonnie dreams of riding: racing around barrels at the rodeo, jumping fences in the steeplechase, lassoing cattle on the range. When Sugar, Bonnie's beloved plastic pony, pops a spring and her dad takes her for riding lessons on a real horse, her dreams come true. She learns how to walk, trot, jump, and how to tack, groom, and care for a horse. Then comes Bonnie's first horse show, with a blue ribbon for her--and a surprise for Sugar, too. Carefully researched, full of information, and lovingly illustrated with bright, energetic watercolors, A Blue Ribbon for Sugar is the perfect primer for every young rider.
