Book description
Ros falls instantly in love with the beautiful black and white pony
that she discovers tethered in a field near her home. She has always
longed for a pony of her own. If only he belonged to her . . .
But Badger (as Ros and her friend, Leo, name the pony) belongs to
someone else, and Ros watches with mounting horror as she sees the way
his real owners treat him. At first it is just neglect, but worse is
to come and, as the long cold winter nights draw in, Ros knows that
she can no longer bear to stand by and see the once-beautiful pony
suffer. Together with Leo she hatches a desperate plan - a plan to
rescue poor Badger . . .
A heartwarming and dramatic tale from award-winning author K. M. Peyton.
