Mulberry is the bad-tempered pony no one wants to ride. So when shy girl Sam enters them both in the Summer Show, everyone thinks she's crazy. But Sam has a secret weapon - she can talk to horses. The only problem is, Mulberry isn't keen on listening and time is running out. Will they learn to work together?

Includes pony stickers!

Sam is pony-mad and dreams of being a brilliant rider. But her nerves often get the better of her, even when she discovers that she can actually talk to horses.

Mulberry is a beautiful black pony, but she's so grumpy no one wants to ride her. Except for Sam . . .
