The Jill series is one of the classics of pony fiction. In this second book, disaster has hit Jill's plans. No pony-filled summer for her: her mother is going to America, and so Jill must go and stay with her defiantly un-horsy cousin, Cecilia. Cecilia's idea of a good summer pursuit is pressing flowers. It's not Jill's. But there is hope on the horizon, when Jill meets a family who are desperate to find a way they can keep their pony. Jill suggests they all get together and start their own stable.
There are a few minor problems to be got over: the fact they only have one pony to start the stable with, for one. The tatty state of the stables doesn't help either, but this is a Jill book, and horses and ponies do appear.
Full of Ruby Ferguson's trademark humour, this story sees Jill brilliantly contrasted with Cecilia. And ponies there are, in plenty.
