Star Dream by Janet Lambert
Although Dria hadn't initially wanted to spend her summer vacation at Great-Grandmother's farm in Virginia, she ends up having the happiest summer ever! First, meeting the beautiful colt, Star Dream and learning to ride! Then, having her mother's health restored so that she and her father could join Dria, this was truly a dream come true. Now, if only Star Dream were Dria's very own horse.... An excellent book for all girls, especially those who love horses.
