Dreamer: Dreamer : Follow Your Dreams (Series #1) (Paperback)

While most of the other 12-year-old children in Nora Strong's grade are filling their spare time with tv, computer, and field sports, Nora is obsessed with horses. Nora dreams about owning her own horse someday. Many of the girls at the stable, including her best friend Amanda Kasper, are fortunate enough to have their own horses. Unfortunately, Nora's parents, Mike and Karen Strong, cannot afford horse ownership, so Nora must settle for helping at the barn in exchange for lessons. If she wasn't fortunate enough to live a few doors down from the stable in her small Connecticut town, Nora would not even have that opportunity. When a new, magnificent horse arrives at the stables, Nora's desire to have her own horse consumes her. She is convinced the beautiful Arabian horse, Dreamer, is her soul mate and must be hers. Besides her parents' unwillingness to buy her a horse, another situation arises that might pull Dreamer further from her grasp. Will Nora be able to ride Dreamer into the sunset? Or will she lose the one thing she has wanted more than anything? This is a story filled with a young girl's passionate desire for horses, and the work ethic it takes to make dreams come true.
