Three friends, May, John and Marie found a treasure map with the help of Moonlight and Snowfall’s braveness. They got the courage to go look for the treasure and explore lots of mysteries with their ponies. Will the friends ever find the treasure?

• “Help!” screamed May as she nearly fell off Sunfall.

• “Do you think she wants mints?” asked Marie.

• “I think!” yelled John. • Suddenly Snowfall lifted her front hoof and

made lots of droplets of water go on her rider.

• “Stop it!” pleaded John. • “Snowflake please stop eating the hay!”

Said Marie.• Moonlight snorted. • “He’s trying to sleep” said John. • “I know, right?” yelled May.

• “Shhhh!” hissed Mary and John. • “Sorry” whispered May. • “I’m gonna get my xylophone” said John. • “Ok” said May when Sunfall finally calmed

down. • But Snowfall won’t calm down. She whinned. • “I’ll be back girl” he said. She whinned

again.• “Neigh!” hissed Moonlight. • “Better hurry” said May. • “Ok!” he yelled as he ran into the palace and

bumped into his Mom.• “What’s the hurry, son?”.• “Nothing” he said. • “Ok, honey” she said.

• He ran into the room and got his xylophone and ran back to the stables.

• He played a song but as he played, he didn’t notice a ribbon dangling in front of May’s face.

• “What is it?” asked John. • “I don’t know!” screamed May. • That took Snowfall by surprise, and fell in

the water. “Neigh!” he squealed. • “Sorry Snowflake” said May. And tripped on

a rock and fell in a bucket of milk. • “Milk, fresh from a cow!” giggled John. • “Who turned off the lights?” asked May. • Marie took the ribbon and read it.

paper Snowfall found but she couldn’t understand it.

• “Letters” she thought. • But before she put it back she fell asleep. • Next day she can’t find her friends but she

found a note. It said: meet us at the stables. • But when she got there, “there was no sign of

them!” she said but she remembered the note also says: we’re going to the forest!
