Wearing her precious gold locket Serilda sets off for her first day of school. Encountering a dirty ragged man beating a boney, lame sorrel mare, she impulsively trades her only possession of value, the locket, for the horse. After much care, the mare becomes a valuable and much beloved member of the family. A flash flood and a bridge wash-out provide ample opportunity for Star to prove her value, but when Star is stolen, can Serilda find a way to reclaim her?
