Sixth Grader Begins Work On Pony Trilogy

CANTON, OH—Canton-area sixth-grader Melissa Wright announced plans Monday to begin work on her much-anticipated “Pony Trilogy,” a three-part series chronicling her adventures with fictional pony Star Rider. Volume one, tentatively titled Melissa Meets Star Rider, is expected to be completed sometime this week. “It’s gonna be about me and Star Rider having all this fun together, and I’m also gonna talk about how much I love to ride her,” Wright said. While Wright did not give exact details of the second and third installments, they are widely expected to touch on Star Rider’s amazing ability to fly, as well as the pony’s acquisition of a magic emerald which grants Wright the power to eavesdrop on anyone she wants to by speaking their name. “Expect this work to take sixth-grade pony fiction in exciting new directions,” said George Toffel of Doubleday Press.
