Bookroo's summary
Iris dreams of riding the wild horse Rain, and Walter devises a clever plan to make it happen. Meanwhile, Walter's first day at school turns sour when his teacher calls him 'Walt.' Iris steps in with a creative solution to help him express his feelings. Together, they navigate challenges, proving that friendship is about supporting each other through thick and thin. Will their plans succeed, and can they overcome these hurdles together?
From the publisher
“As engaging as ever.” –Publishers Weekly Sometimes it takes two friends to solve a problem. So when Iris announces that she really wants to ride the wild horse Rain, Walter comes up with the perfect plan to help her. And when Walter has a terrible first day of school because his teacher calls him Walt instead of Walter, Iris gives him a wonderful idea on how he can “show-and-tell” his feelings about the nickname. After all, helping is what best friends do for each other!
