Blue Ribbon Day — Cathy Hapka / Catherine Hapka

In Pony Scouts: Blue Ribbon Day, the eighth book in the Pony Scouts series, horse-loving Meg, Jill, and Amy are thrilled to be going to the county fair. They get to help Jill's mom prepare the ponies for the driving class competition. And they'll have plenty of time to enjoy lots of fair fun and try the yummy treats.

Lovely watercolor illustrations on every page add to the story's charm, and a page of pony pointers explaining horse terms is a fun bonus for riding enthusiasts.
