Description
Twelve-year-old Nathaniel and his sisters are thrilled when they find an ad for a free pony in the paper. They can hardly believe their luck - the pony is theirs, as long as they can take care of it. But what will their mother say? Nat knows things are hard for his mom; his dad left them four years ago. Having a pony would be a big help to Nat and his sisters. It would mean so much to Queenie, who's been feeling down lately. And it would give Nat and Cid a chance to stop bickering. When Nat's mother finally agrees to let them keep the pony, life is still tough, but at least they have something to look forward to. But then disaster strikes - a fire destroys the barn where their pony lives. Can Nat and his sisters find a way to save their beloved pet?
