... Vivi Malloy started riding at three and now shows in the medium pony hunter division; her older sister has two horses, and one brother also rides and shows. ... Krementz tells the story "as if" in the little girl's words--and in photos.... [The book is] the closest most readers will come to a glimpse of what it's like to live the dream.
