Includes never-before-seen chapters!
Twelve-year-old Andrea "Andi" Carter attracts trouble the way her palomino horse, Taffy, attracts flies on a hot summer day. Andi's entire family and the staff at the Circle C Ranch treat her like such a pesky kid that she sometimes wonders if they would all be better off without her. After a particularly scary incident where Andi gets in trouble once again, she saddles up Taffy and runs away from home.
But her escape quickly leads to frightening encounters with a horse thief and a vicious young lady--all of which makes Andi realize that there really is no place like home.
Susan Marlow's captivating characters have even more to say in this newly expanded edition of a classic Andi story.

Andi and Taffy always seem to get a little more than they bargained for and have to learn many lessons the hard way. These are about 18 chapters, ~ 140 pgs, pb.
