In 1857 Utah Territory, twelve-year-old Sol McAllister dreams of owning Star, a beautiful black filly. But his father John, a Mormon settler committed to dealing honestly with the Indians, keeps teaching Sol that fairness and the Golden Rule matter more than winning. When Sol must choose between his heart's desire and doing right, his sacrifice ripples toward an unexpected peace between the settlers and Chief Arrowpine's Utes. A warm, values-driven frontier story of integrity, courage, and reconciliation.

  • A boy-and-his-horse story with real moral stakes: Sol must choose honesty over the thing he wants most.
  • From beloved LDS author Carol Lynn Pearson, drawn from her childhood on the Ute reservation.
  • A pioneer-era lesson on the Golden Rule that 'works'—perfect for family home evening discussion.
  • Suspenseful frontier peril balanced with warmth, humor, and a spunky grandma.
“"All the darkness in the world cannot snuff out the light of this one little candle."”

Perfect for a parent or teacher looking for a wholesome, character-building frontier story about honesty and kindness for a horse-loving 9-to-13-year-old.
