Get ready for the most fun on four legs, in this enchanting pony tale that everyone will love! Young girls Maddie and Jeanie are about to ride into adventure as they trot around Peaks Island in Maine on their magical horses, Merryleggs and Mr. Charles Dumpling.

Merryleggs has wonderful spots, while Mr. Dumpling is a miniature horse who is famous for eating everything in sight, but there's more to these four-legged friends than meets the eye. Maddie and Jeanie can talk with their horses--and these frisky animals show a great deal of horse sense, because they have lots of fun things to say.

Whether the girls and the horses are visiting the houses of friendly fairies, merrily skidding on the ice or eating delicious apples, they're up for anything and everything, riding right up until evening when the girls finally go to sleep and have pleasant dreams of horses. This book is a gorgeously told, magical series that will entrance children and teach them to love and appreciate these wonderful animals and treat tem with the kindness and respect. Based on real-life horses that live and work at Horse Island Camp, run by the author since 1998. Horsing around was never so much fun!
