Although I thought i read this series before, I don't remember this book.
This book starts with Gran & Joe wanting Darla Jean Randall to go to New York City! First they'd have to ask her mother & father. It was still hard to remember that she had a dad! However, since Gran's Award Ceremony was the same weekend that DJ was going to art classes with Isabella Gant, there was no way she could go. Besides, DJ had left her grades fall and she was on restrictions. DJ's problem was algebra, and Joe explained that her ability with words & art were from one side of the brain, & math was from the other. DJ had even prayed about it, but God didn't seem to be listening. DJ visited with Major, then got to work. She couldn't ride him because of the C's on her report card. She was working with Patches, when Bridget Sommersby, owner of Briones Riding Academy, suggested that the owner should sell Patches because DJ had done her best with him and he had recently thrown his owner & broken her arm. Bridget expressed her opinion that DJ could learn algebra, but DJ considered, what if she couldn't & could never ride Major or compete in the Olympics.
