4-6Marguerite Henry's Ponies of Chincoteague series.
Maddie is afraid her stable will sell her beloved Cloudy back to his neglectful former owners (Dream). Brooke and Foxy feel out of place at a rich summer riding camp (Summer). In both books, fellow members of an online Chincoteague pony club offer support. Mild conflicts and abundant subplots and backstories give these horse-centric middle-grade reads plenty of texture. Review covers these Marguerite Henry's Ponies of Chincoteague titles: Blue Ribbon Summer and Maddie's Dream.
