In one story, Sun Catcher and her mare, Sunshine, encounter Stubborn Echo, a boy from her tribe, and a grizzly bear while riding in the forest. Echo and his horse, Ghost, fall into a pit, and Sun Catcher must rescue them despite Echo's dislike for her. In another story, Jani is upset about moving to the country, but brings her mare, Keeta. She discovers their new barn is haunted and, with the help of a new friend, seeks to free the angry spirit.
