Description:


Written in seven short, easy-to-read chapters, this story is perfect for  children who are starting to read longer books on their own. 

Nico lives with his family on the most productive little farm in a corner of a beautiful kingdom.  His life seems perfect when his father allows him to get Lena, a small, white  pony.  However, Nico realizes that he will soon grow too big for his pony.  He decides to train her to do something that will be so special, his father will never sell her to anyone else.  But Nico's plan backfires when Father brags about the clever pony and  makes a bet with the King that could lose not only Nico's pony, but the family farm as well.

Will Nico and Lena be able to save the day?
