As their names suggest, Prudence and Moxie have very different personalities. Their friendship grows, however, after level-headed Prudence half-persuades, half-dares the otherwise brash and fearless Moxie to overcome her trepidation about horses. Together, they go for a ride on Prudence's beloved steed, Thunder. Scribbly mixed-media illustrations lend a quirky, humorous tone to this entertaining tale of friendship.
