About This Book

The tale follows a white wooden rocking horse that comes to life with other toys after the store closes, taking part in nightly play, games, and a race. After a fall leaves one of its legs broken, the narrative traces the toy's care at a toy hospital, encounters with helpful and threatening figures, and efforts to be mended. Episodic chapters emphasize companionship among playthings, perseverance through injury, and a joyful reunion at the story's close.
