About This Book

A small pony leaves a quiet meadow in search of adventure and meets new owners, fellow animals, and unfamiliar routines. He learns and practices tricks, makes friends while also causing occasional mischief, and adapts to different homes. Eventually he is taken to larger venues and performs in a circus, where he encounters exotic companions, endures separations, and faces the demands of training and life on the road. The tale follows his setbacks and recoveries and concludes with reconciliations that bring him a renewed sense of belonging and contentment.
