Go, G-O, Go Bulldogs, Go!
This is a good book! It needs some more action, but I still really liked it! I couldn't put it down! I reccomend it for everyone from mystery to fiction to sports readers! I think some guys would even like it even if they aren't cheerleaders! I haven't read any other books in the series, but if they are as good as this one, I can't wait to read them!

Darryl and Sally...or could Melody step in Sally's place?
This book is great! It has mean pranks with exciting parts but a good ending. I love how all through the book Darryl is with Sally but it's like he likes Melody, too. He calls Melody and goes on walks with her...he obviously likes her! But he also is GOING OUT with Sally, the cheer squad captain. And as Melody starts to steal Darryl away...competition doesn't just heat up between the Cougars and Bulldogs...but with Sally and Melody, too. Everyone should read this book--it's good! And they should read the other CHEER USA books too--every single one of them rocks! Personally, I like Sally the best. But opinions might change.....

good in general - excellent for divorce/custody issues
I read this book years ago when my parents got divorced and loved it. In fact, the reason I looked it up on Amazon.com was that I wanted to recommend it to someone (a librarian no less!) and couldn't remember the author.

The story is about a girl whose parents are getting divorced and are sharing joint custody. She tries to hide the divorce from the people at school which is very difficult given her emotional state and the joint custody. She is hurt and embarrassed in addition to going through all the usual (pre?)teenage-angst and, as in all such books, must come to terms with her family's situation.

The story is true to the way I felt at the time which was very important because I felt like I was the only one feeling that way (I did know, in my head, that others went through this but that didn't effect how I felt, an important distinction). I'm _very_ disappointed to learn that it is out of print.

If you can get your hands on it - definitely read it. It was good just as a story and great as therapy!

A 6th grade favorite
This was one of my favorite books when I was younger. I used to check it and its sequels out of the library at least once a month. Even though all the reviews will say the book is about divorce, it is really a story any young girl can identify with.

ATTENTION, PLEASE!
I have been reading these books since I was 6 (I'm 12 now!) and the stories aren't grabbing me as much as they used to. The chapters are short and choppy, and the artwork isn't very good, either. What happened? I'm about to call it quits on buying the series, but I think I'll give this one a chance.

The Pony and the Bear
This book was good, but not the best. It is about the girls encounter with Tommy Rand and his friend, and about the pony pals on a campout. On the campout they see a bear. Well really, Anna sees a bear during her nightwatch and tells Lulu and Pam about it. This was ok but could have been better.

good read
This book is the sequel to Rainbow Kid. Sadly, both of these books are out of print. This sequel, finds the heroine struggling to acheive her own identity in high school and coping with being a two-family child (as a result of her parents' divorce). A light-hearted look at the difficulties many children face following a divorce.

Lightning the "Supermom"?
A note to the author: Remember in "The Baby Pony" how Lightning was mean to Lucky because she didn't know how to take care of a foal? Well, now in this book, Lightning has suddenly become "Supermom" to Lucky. What about Snow White? I think you should have checked your facts first before you published this book.

My review of the Unlucky Pony
I read the Unlucky Pony today. You should buy it. It is very, very good. It was good because there are three girls and their ponies who solve mysteries and they are also heros.

I think this is an extremally great Pony Pal book.My white welsh pony Acorn loves jumping.We don't enter in any shows but I always do mini-comititions with my mum and her brown thoroubred horse Sam.And sometimes with my sister and her bay very fiesty morgan/thoroubred Bill.Pam and her pretty chestnut connamara pony Lightning love to jump.But Pam dosn't like horse shows.Anna is entering on her bay shetland Acorn and Lulu on her white welsh Snow white.Then Pams mums friend comes along.Ealanor is a world known Olympic rider.She has a chestnut thoroubred named Starfire.Starfire has a white star on his forehead and Lightning an upside-down heart.Ealanor convinces Pam to enter the show.Pam,Anna and Lulu are excited.But Pam said that Rosalie could ride Lightning in the show.And then walk,trot and jumping are called at the same time!Pam faces a hard choice.Find out what she does.

read all about it!
This book was more than good it was great! Pam Crandal entered Lightning, the connemara pony in a show jumping class, inspired by olympic star Eleanor Morgan and her thoroughbred Starfire. But Lightning is in one more class, with Rosalie Lacey on her back she is going to win a walk, trot class.Pam then finds out that there are two rings and that their classes are at the same time.Who will ride Lightning? Pam or Rosalie?

This was the best book!!!
This book is about a girl and her pony pals.She enters a horse show on her pony Lightning, only to promise that 6 year old Rosalie Lacey could ride Lightning in a Walk, Trot class,but when the classes are called they both need to ride Lightning at the same time.
