YEE-HAW! Willa is back in this standalone sequel to Horse Girl. This time, she tackles summer camp, new and old frenemies, and worst yet: a horse that's mysteriously gone missing. Seventh-grader Willa is head-over-hooves when she finds a secret note inviting her to Juniper Ranch--a sleepaway camp that's all about horses. The camp promises trail rides, horseback swims, and "ghorst" stories, plus tons of new horse-girl and (gasp!) horse-boy friends. Even better? Willa's pals from Oakwood Riding Academy--including her sworn frenemy, Amara--are all coming along for the fun. But when Willa makes a dangerous mistake and a beloved steed goes missing, everyone at Juniper Ranch is suddenly a suspect. Wills isn't sure who to trust (including herself) as she tries to figure out who's behind the mysterious horse napping. And where they might be lurking. And just how she'll save her "forever herd" before a frightening storm rolls into camp. Gulp!

Critical Reviews
"Horse lovers will appreciate the equine activities and details (including plentiful informative footnotes), mystery fans will enjoy the solid plot and fast pace, and those who like realistic fiction will love the friend drama and Willa's crush on fellow camper Pasquale. A fun, breezy, and enthusiastically punctuated camp mystery for readers who devour horse stories." --Kirkus Reviews "Puzzle pieces connect for a slightly unpredictable and completely sweet resolution, seeing strengthening friendships, solutions to every problem, and plenty of affection for the horse-loving community. A stepping stone to the Saddlehill Academy series and perfect for any horse lover, regardless of whether they read Seim's previous book, Horse Girl." --Booklist Praise for the Horse Girl series:
