The Right-Handed Horse

Lippincott, Philadephia, 1963, 110 pp, illus the author

Lee wants to win the Barbeque Day horse race so he can impress Willie Bea Fussel.
He’s not likely to impress anyone, however, as all he has to ride is a lop-eared mule,
until his family decide to invite cousin Jeff to the barbeque.
