About the Author

Heidi Nyland Melocco started riding ponies at age five—at Smiley R Ranch in Hilliard, Ohio. She was president of and later helped to coach the equestrian team at Ohio Wesleyan University. She earned her master's degree in journalism at Ohio University then headed west to work for a horse magazine. Melocco directed a horse-training TV show on RFD-TV for twelve years and now takes photos and writes books and magazine articles—all about horses. She is a PATHi registered therapeutic riding instructor, too. She lives in Mead, Colorado with her husband Jared, daughter Savannah, palomino quarter horse Mister T, and the best pony ever—Romeo.
Savannah Melocco lives on a farm in Mead, Colorado with two dogs, three cats, one horse, and one very special pony. She loves to read and write and play with her dogs. Some of her other hobbies include dancing and showing dogs in 4H.
