First Place

Elizabeth and Jessica are in sixth grade. Lila gets a horse named thunder which her father got her although she doesn't really appreciate the gift (no surprise there.)

She lets members of the Unicorn Club visit and, amazingly enough, Elizabeth is also allowed to visit the horse (because of things she is doing for Lila related to school work.)

Liz takes a liking to the horse and riding it. Still, there are problems with Jessica, a horse competition, more (expected) nastiness by Lila to some other girls and an interesting turn of events in the story.

The characters stay within their expected bounds, the story itself is good and the resolution is quite acceptable.
