Keeker and the Horse Show Show-Off: Book 2 in the Sneaky Pony Series

Keeker is sooo excited about the horse contest! When she see's the other kids with their horses she looses her confidence, OH NO! Will they win, or not? I love Ponies and Horses so I knew I'd love this series and book! I'd really recomend getting this book! If you like sweet pony books you will LOVE this book! And I'm not joking

We were looking for some beginning chapter-books that were reasonably intelligent, nonviolent, not filled with weird messages, unpleasant behavior, violence or issue-oriented anxieties... The "Keeker" series was perfect, about a bright-eyed, sometimes silly little girl nicknamed Keeker who lives on a farm with her parents and various animals, including a mischievous Shetland pony named Plum. "The Horse Show Show-Off" is the second book in the series, and is my favorite (so far). In this episode, Keeker and Plum enter their first horse show, and even though Plum thinks it's totally silly, she wins first place after a competing pony gives her a little nip on the nose. Keeker's nemesis is a snotty rich kid named Tifani, who brags about all the ribbons she's won, and makes Keeker feel insecure because she doesn't have a bunch of fancy stuff and hasn't won any prizes. (Tifani appears in another adventure and is much nicer, in keeping with the innocent feel of the whole series...) If you're looking for beginning books that don't have any weird, creepy stuff in them, the "Keeker" books are a great option.
