The Hope family takes in Polly, a friend's daughter, when her father goes into the hospital. Polly's new Shetland pony comes, too. The pony is beautiful and gentle, but Polly refuses to have anything to do with it. She's afraid of horses, even though she's been around them their entire life.

Can Mandy and James help Polly learn how to love her pony?
