The Saddle Club is nearing the end of their Oregon Trail ride. It's been a long ride, and it's about to get longer: Stevie Lake's competitive nature is taking over. When a boy on the trail ride boasts that he can do almost anything having to do with horses better than a mere girl, Stevie decides to take him up on the challenge. Before her friends know what's happened, Stevie is having a rodeo out West.

Has Stevie finally met her match? Can her friends stop this Wild West duel before things get out of hand? Or does this young cowboy have something else in mind when he challenges Stevie to a roping and hog-tying contest?

5.0 out of 5 stars WONDERFUL!!, December 5, 2000

This review is from: Quarter Horse (Saddle Club(R)) (Paperback)

This book was really good! The three girls stevie Carole and Lisa are near the end of their oregon trail ride and stevies competitive side is showing. She makes a bet with a boy who says he can outdo any girl! They bet that each one of them has to enter all five events in a rodeo and whoever loses has to do something terrible made up by the person that wins. Meanwhile Lisa and Carole get to be rodeo clowns! Though they are really worried about Stevie , they know she doesnt know the first thing about goat wrestling or cow roping. Stevie is also really worried about her boyfriend Phil who is on a rafting trip, she is sure that he has fallen in love with some one new! This book was really exciting , the ending was really good!

Quarter Horse was a book I really enjoyed! Right from the first chapter, it was interesting and original! When Carol and Lisa go to learn about clowning, and Stevie takes on all five events, it lets you see different the aspects of the rodeo. The book also keeps you in suspense, and is funny too. I definitely recommend this book to all horse-lovers!

This review is from: Quarter Horse (Saddle Club(R)) (Paperback)

This was very cool! I liked it how at the end it wasn't the girls who won, they both didn't win sorta(boys Vs Girls), so yeah since I am a guy I didn't want them to be sexist. But yeah, I liked because I learned some about western riding events, like barrel racing( i knew about it) but the Cow penning and the goat thing), and it was cool when Stevie saved Caroles life!
