Will what the pony needs break Hannah's heart?
Freckles can't be convinced to trot sometimes, and even though that's fine with Hannah, she suspects something must be wrong with the pony. The barn manager thinks it's time to retire him, so the vet is called and tests are run.
But Hannah enjoys being with Freckles even if they only walk down the trails.
She ignores the facts. When all her efforts to help him fail, she tries desperately to write a happy ending to her pony story.
Will she have to put on her big girl breeches and let Freckles take his own trail, or is she the real problem?
