Pony Girl

Janet Randall

4.9/5 (17466 ratings)

Description:Illustrated by Dorothy Bayley MorseA stepmother was the last thing Peg and Jimmy Warmack expected Father to bring home from the rodeo -- Maida, with her booming voice and bright yellow dress. Peg, though only eleven, had done a good job of mothering Jimmy, keeping the house, and helping care for their beloved horses and ponies. Father had not been winning rodeo championships lately, and his interest in the ranch had obviously flagged. Now he looked happy again. Still, the young Warmacks told each other they would never, never like Maida.An even bigger change had to be faced when Father decided, with Maida's encouragement, to give up the ranch and buy a ponyriding concession at an amusement park in California. Difficulties seemed insurmountable when they arrived there to find a filthy house and a stable full of neglected ponies, half-starved and sick. How the family, all working together, make a successful business of the pony-ride provides the main thread of the story. Adding excitement is the mystery of who can be trying to make the various park "rides" unsafe for children. Peg proves herself a wily sleuth as well as the best of pony girls.The unusual carnival setting, complete with ferris wheel, fortune-teller and snap-the-whip, will be especially appealing to young readers who will find the park people a fascinating group with a fine community spirit.This is a Junior Literary Guild selection, chosen as an outstanding book for boys and girls (A Group).Library of Congress catalog card number: 63-13175We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
