Having three horses may be a dream come true to some girls, but not to Sophie Groves. Her family's collection of horses, which includes a biting pony, has only made Sophie afraid of riding. Most new friendships end quickly as Sophie shares scary tales about her crazy group of horses. Will she overcome her fears?

This humorous story, set on a small island in Maine, is a great book that shows the struggles of a young girl as she tries to make new friends as well as overcome her fear of horses. Sophie's adventures with her three horses will make many readers laugh.
