Ben is a horse master, and loves horses, so when the Moss' take the young boy in, they decide to give him work at the neighbors house driving cows (on a horse, of course). After that a series of events happens, and Ben finds out his beloved father is dead. Miss Celia, a neighbor, feels sorry and comforts him, and finally offers to let Ben stay with her and her fourteen-year-old brother, Thornton who is called Thorny. After that many adventures and summer-happenings go on in Celia's house. Sancho gets lost, Ben is accused of stealing, Miss Celia even gets hurt and Ben takes a wild ride on his horse, and...

Wasn't sure if I would like it when it first started out, but quickly became intrigued with the story. Very captivating!!!

Sweet story. Loved it. I don't really mind the variety of readers, but the whole every chapter this is a Libravox recording. Thank you for the free book however! And I would like to volunteer at some point.

The narration of this book probably would have been ok if she were in a sound proof room. Very distracting to say the least. This is the first audiobook I have ever listened to that actually was like this, very disappointing.

I tried to listen, gave it 2 hours. In the 8 chapters and 2 hours it has 4 narrators, 3 out of which are awful and really bad recordings. Awful! I had to give up
