13-year-old Chrissie can’t wait to take part in her family’s tradition: raising a foal of her own in preparation for the annual yearling auction. However, she’s not given the colt she expects to raise, but gangly and awkward Klutz. She can’t wait for the auction so she can sell him, but over the year, her feelings change and then she is faced with a dilemma when her parents want to sell the colt she
has come to love.
