When I was a child, I had a horse just like this one. I rode it all the time. My mother found this treasure at a garage sale and bought it for Christopher a few years ago. I don't think it has gone a day without being ridden. This ever-faithful plastic fellow has played the part of the trusty steed in many an adventure. My kids have included him in playing Davy Crockett, The Lone Ranger, Paul Revere's Ride, various cowboy games, mounted Policemen, cavalry, pulling covered wagons with the Ingalls and acting out Misty of Chincoteague. Some toys are fleeting fancies, others are keepers.
