About This Book

A collection of short, episodic stories set on a family farm follows a newly acquired horse and the household dog through everyday adventures and chores. Episodes show the horse adjusting to a new home, helping with driving and farm tasks, and acting on keen senses, while the dog guards the yard, rescues animals and children, and causes mild mischief. Grounded in domestic observation, the tales emphasize loyalty, responsibility, cooperation between humans and animals, and the small perils and comforts of rural life.
