The Snow Pony

Janet Stone is new in town and lonely. Stuck-up Marigold Stass has snubbed her. No one wants to be her friend -- until she meets Mr. Flower, "the mad hermit of Winterfield." Mr. Flower offers Janet a job: helping him tame and groom his wild pony, Pearl, a surprise gift for his adored grandson who will visit in the spring.

But spring and Mr. Flowers grandson are almost here. Janet's afraid. Will she lose her beloved pony? Will she be alone again? Or has she learned how to make friends and keep them -- for life...
