Riding Champion — L.L. Hitchcock

In this exciting "Dear Barbie" picture-book adventure, Barbie and her little sister Skipper both enter a horse show. Barbie wins a show ribbon on her white horse, Rosebud, but Skipper has trouble in the novice class. Her horse becomes frightened by the noise of the show and jumps out of the ring. Barbie chases after her sister and brings the nervous horse to a halt before any harm is done. Skipper realizes that she still has a lot to learn about riding, but Barbie's steady encouragement keeps her spirits from flagging.
