I found this movie to be a delightful entertainment of the innocence of children. It is full of surprises and interspersed with situations that make for laughter. As with most children's movies it is a little far fetched for reality but not for imagination. The horses are something to behold and the scenery is beautiful. It is a story of the determination of three youngsters to accomplish their goals of having a horse and facing obstacles that would stop a lot of adults mainly because if "having common sense". Innocence and naivety make for not giving up. The three youngsters play well against each other as they show three different types of people that come together for a common purpose. This is not a movie for the so called sophisticated but is an enjoyable movie to watch.
