When Cash first watches Rose training in the arena next to his paddock, he sees her in a different light. He watches closely from the fence line as she dances gracefully past him, weaving her spell. He yearns to be her friend, but she continues to treat him aggressively. Nevertheless, weeks later, he ends up saving the day when Rose is preparing for her first show.
This story reveals the power that love and friendship have when confronting seemingly overwhelming differences. It is a must for horse-loving children and adults from all over the world.
