"Carmen watches the other kids riding their horses and longs for one to be her own. So when Carmen's dad announces that he has found her a horse, she couldn't be happier, that is, until she sees him. Skeeter is dirty and strange looking. Worse still, Skeeter isn't even a horse - he's a mule! The kids at school laugh at Skeeter, but Carmen refuses to let it get to her and decides to enter Skeeter in the annual cross country race. Carmen discovers that a little patience and a lot of practice pays off, as Skeeter proves that he's just as good as a horse."--From publisher.

First chapter book.
