Interesting story about a boy who rides a mare, but in his tribe only little children ride mares so he endures teasing and taunting from the other members of the tribe until he can prove that a mare makes just as good a horse as a stallion.

A nice horse story for a horse-loving child. The art is quite nice, not detailed, but it shows the motion and spirit of these horses.
