Bookroo's summary

Kelly's search for a new pony leads her to Koolio, a stunning but problematic horse. As her hopes of turning him into a champion fade, her sister Vicki devises a plan that might just change everything. Can Koolio overcome his issues and fulfill the sisters' dreams, or will Kelly's bruises mark the end of their journey? Discover a tale of resilience and unexpected triumph.

From the publisher

With Cameo sold to upgrade their family horse truck, 11-year-old Kelly has to find a new pony for just a fraction of the cost. Her troubled search ends when she meets Koolio. She is convinced the gorgeous grey is a champion in the making. But Koolio also comes with some big problems. Within weeks poor Kelly is battered and bruised and ready to give up on him. That is, until her big sister Vicki comes up with a plan that could change everything. Will Koolio get past his bad behavior to become the winner Kelly and her sisters believe he can be? This story of generosity and confidence restored is inspired by the Wilson Sisters’ early years.
