Can they use their new knowledge to help Tobie in time?

Welcome to Pony Camp

Lucas and Emma are off for a week at pony camp! They are looking forward to riding new horses and making new barn friends.

Fitting in can be difficult when the other kids have been riding longer and you’re one of the youngest kids. While Emma has some trouble picking up new terms in their lessons, Lucas has a run-in with a mean bully.

Each setback shows them how important friends are. Knowing when to ask for help, and staying positive can turn a bad start into the best week ever.

Horse shows are fun, but they can also be nerve-wracking.

It’s Emma’s first year in the walk-trot division and her pony’s first show. Rocko is a very handsome pony, but he is pulling all his tricks and Emma has to figure out how to help him. Luckily, she has her best friend there with her.

Lucas has been in this show before and has some tips to offer, and helping his friend might just help him forget his show-day nerves.

A day full of surprises and excitement shows both riders that teamwork and good horsemanship can turn a tough situation into a great day.
