When the pony narrating this heartwarming picture book is outgrown by his beloved girl, he's sold but finds a new home in a circus. When the circus is broken up years later, the pony faces auction again--but ends up with the girl (now grown) he's missed all this time. Warm illustrations expand on the emotions in the concise text.

Wobbly printing on yellow lined paper, decorated with crayon and collage, simulates a girl bunny's journal, in which she feelingly records her friendship ups and downs. The voice is convincingly childlike without being too precious, and the accompanying energetic illustrations show rabbits looking and acting like modern kids.
