(2) 4-6 Twelve-year-old Lidie, headstrong and impulsive, leaves Brazil and joins her father and brother in Queens, New York, where they train racehorses. Meanwhile, a filly is born in South Carolina. Together the two "wild girls," horse and human, figure out who they are and where they belong. Rich characters and raw, real emotions make this more than the usual horse story.
