Leroy Ninker longs to quit his job at the drive-in theater and become a cowboy, but he doesn't own so much as a horse. And then Maybelline, a very particular -- and peculiar -- horse gallops into his life.
With their well-developed personalities, Leroy and Maybelline make a great pair. There is some adventure, but this heart-warming story is definitely more character-driven. While it stands alone nicely, it does have some references to characters from the Mercy Watson series.
