Two Books in One!
They're Stevie, Lisa and Carole - three totally different girls with one thing in common - they love horses!
'Purebred'
When Carole Hanson and her father travel to Minnesota to visit relatives, Carole has the perfect opportunity to work on a school assignment to create a family tree. Ever since her mother died, Carole has been curious about that side of the family, especially about an ancestor who journeyed north along the Underground Railroad. Then Carole discovers a secret lurking in her family tree, and she begins to question where she's come from.
Do bloodlines matter as much with people as they do with horses? Carole discovers the answer when a dangerous horseback ride threatens the life of one of her relatives.
'Gift Horse'
Stevie Lake is ecstatic. After years of wanting a horse of her own, her parents have given her "No-Name", a beautiful Arabian-Saddlebred. And everyone can see that the frisky, sassy mare is the perfect match for a rider like fun-loving Stevie. Now all she has to do to make "No-Name" hers is come up with a fitting name.
But before Stevie can find a name for the beautiful mare, her happiness is abruptly shattered. During a Pony Club exhibition, another girl claims that "No-Name" was stolen from her family's barn. Could Stevie's new mount really be the horse the older girl calls "Punk"? Is Stevie about to lose her dream horse forever?
