In the summer of 1957, the world seems topsy-turvy with the Communist threat, people digging bomb shelters, and Elvis being drafted. For fourteen-year-old, horse-crazy Winna Beckman, life has always been a tiptoe situation.
Her father is ill, and her family must move to an apple farm on California’s central coast. At their new home no one will know her, and Winna hopes things will change for the better. She makes a list of goals and aspirations: get a horse, make at least one friend, don’t flunk ninth grade, and keep Mama happy.
Winna’s overjoyed when Daddy buys Babyface and another mare, Snafu, who is expecting a foal. Horses are her only interest, until she meets Ben, the boy next door who owns a horse too. For the first time, Winna’s in love, and she worries her hope of attracting Ben will be sabotaged if her mother’s drinking problem is revealed.
