Cutting Horse

By Bonnie Bryant

Handsome teen actor Skye Ransom is on location out West at The Bar None Ranch. He needs The Saddle Club's help. Skye has to ride a cutting and roping horse, but the Hollywood-style steed he's been given doesn't know a cow from a canape. Then the girls get a brilliant idea. They must enlist the help of their friend John Brightstar, who works at the ranch. Unfortunately, John hates having the California movie crew wander around the ranch, making his job impossible. The last thing he wants to do is help them! It looks as if the girls are in a fix that will see the movie director looking The Saddle Club's way and shouting, "Cut!"

Bonnie Bryant is the author of over one hundred forty books about horses, including the Saddle Club series and its spinoffs, the Pony Tails series and the Pine Hollow series. Bryant did not know very much about horses before writing the first Saddle Club book in 1986, so she found herself learning right along with the characters she created. She has also written novels and movie novelizations under her married name, Bonnie Bryant Hiller. Bryant was born and raised in New York City, where she still lives today.
