In Florida, a determined woman raises Twilight, a fiery descendant of the legendary Misty of Chincoteague. With greatness in her blood, Twilight faces the challenge of becoming a champion show horse. Can this spirited pony, with wild ancestors, rise to the top in cutting, jumping, or dressage? As Twilight steps into the arena, the stakes are high, and the competition fierce. Will she fulfill her destiny and outshine the best horses in the world? Discover the journey of a pony with a legacy to uphold and a future to conquer.

From the publisher

Misty’s Twilight is part thouroughbred, part Chinoteague pony, and one hundred percent fire and talent. A direct descendant of the most famous pony ever, Misty of Chinoteague, Twilight has greatness in her blood. Now it’s her turn to shine, perhaps as a cutting horse, a jumper, or in the graceful art of dressage. Can Twilight, whose ancestors were wild ponies living on an untamed island, do it? Can she compute against the best horses in the world…and win?
