The story of two boys, a palomino horse, and Santa Barbara‘s famous Fiesta. First, Christy and his friend, Ramon solve the mystery of a palomino horse they find in a deserted barn. Christy helps Ramon get over his fear of horses, because Ramon’s aristocratic grandfather wants him to ride in the Fiesta parade. The two friends prove that no matter how different their backgrounds are, they have plenty in common when they share adventures and interests.
