I was trying to come up with a clever gift idea for a young girl who has been helping me at the farm recently due to my severe tendonitis. She's been a real gift as even a few days a week of help has enabled me to function. So what could I do for her for Christmas? She rides a little, has a pony, and shows a few times a year locally. So here it goes.....

Then I thought I would add National Velvet, the book.
Then the video, the old one....just in case she's never seen the old version.
A pair of antique horse bookends (for her books):
Or these:
Or these:
And lastly, a Tiger Sponge, the very best grooming tool out there, just for fun. This is my stocking stuffer of choice this year. Lots of my friends are getting one of these....
