Bookroo's summary
Nellie Sue dreams of being a cowgirl and wishes for a horse on her birthday. When her father surprises her with a bicycle instead, she must use her wild imagination to transform disappointment into adventure. Can she tame this new 'steed' and embrace her cowgirl spirit, or will her dreams of riding off into the sunset be dashed? Join Nellie Sue as she discovers that sometimes, the best adventures come in unexpected forms.
From the publisher
Nellie Sue, who fancies herself a real cowgirl, wants a horse for her birthday, but she discovers that a brand new bicycle–her first–takes almost as much taming as a filly.
