Secret Horse

Lisa, Carole and Stevie are all best friends. They love horses. They work at Pine Hollow, where they keep their horses. One day Stevie and Carole were not going to be able to show up on time to go on their usual practice ride so, they told Lisa that she can go with out them. So, Lisa decided to just exercise horses that needed exercising. Lisa went to Samson's stale; he is one of the horses that needed to get out so Lisa got him all saddled up. Lisa went to the jumping arena. She figured that Samson's mom was great jumper that just maybe Samson is the same. Lisa started off with a small jump. Lisa shocked decided to go to the next higher jump. Samson did a great job. Then Lisa got an idea that she would try just one big jump. After the big jump, Lisa cooled Samson down and then stops and thought, "wow Samson is such a great jumper". She decided that she would keep it a secret. A few days later she told her 2 best friends wanted to take Samson to the Macrae. The three best friends wanted to take Samson to the Macrae because they all knew that he would be great in the show. They did so many extra chores at the stables so that they can get on Max Regnery's (the stable owner) good side. Finally, the three girls told Max they needed to talk to him. The next day Max met the girls out in the jumping arena, where Lisa was riding Samson, she had to show Max what Samson could do. Max at the end told them that they could take him to the Macrae show. They were so happy that they could go to the show. I think this book was a great book because it is about horses and about girls that ride just like my best friend and I. I found this book very interesting. If you love horses then these Saddle club books are great for you to read. I like how you can imagine what is happening in your mind when your reading the book.

First of all let me tell you this book is great! Its one of my favorites and it is a fun and exciting book. But what I really wanted to tell you was that Samson is still black! Just because there is a horse on the cover it doesn't mean that that horse IS Samson! It's one of the horses that they are taking in from the paddock.So as you can see samson did not change colors he is still a black horse always was a black horse and always will be a black horse! It even says in this book that Samson is black and there is even a part in the book that is exactly what it is on the cover...taking a horse in from the paddock. And also if you are a real horse person you can tell that the horse on the cover is a mare not a gelding like Samson!

ok so ms bryant has written over 80 books and people are giving out about her running out of ideas come on who can up with over 80 completely origanal storylines she has come up with twists in story lines that make me jump when i read them i think she deserves applause not crittisism when i was every sad about any thing i would read her books and would soon be laughing at stevies antics so bravo ms bryant and dont listen to all those who try to put you down the probably get Fs in there english writting muireann

I wish that Lisa could be a little less namby-pamby. She acts like such a lily liver. Otherwise I liked the book, and the plot is pretty good.

I can't wait for this new Saddle Club book to come out!!! I love the saddle club. however, I agree, I thought Samson was black. Look on the cover of PLEASURE HORSE, and he is black, then look on this cover and he's brown. That's o.k though. hey, if anyone wants a more mature version of the saddle club, try pine hollow: guys, horses, cars, and MUCH more!!! Keep up the great work, Bonnie!!!
