Andrew and White Horse

One day Andrew was out in his
yard. He was watering some flowers. ql
There was a c/op, clop behind him. He looked and
there stood a white horse with wings.
“Hello,” said the white horse with wings. “I am
White Horse."
"Hello," said Andrew. “I am Andrew. What can I
do for you?” Andrew tried to be brave but was a
little scared of the big talking horse.
“We are looking for a boy to help us. We need
you to ride our young horses. They need to feel what
it is like to have a person on their back," said White
Horse.
“Have you had a boy ride your young horses
before?" asked Andrew.
“Yes, we have, but he has grown up now. So we
need a new boy to help us," said White Horse.
"I could maybe help you. TI love to ride horses.
Only, I have never ridden a horse with wings," said
Andrew.
"I will let you feel what it is like,” said White
Horse. “Hop up on my back.”
Andrew hopped up on White Horse's back. The
horse flapped his two huge wings, and they were off.
Up, up, up into the sky they flew.
“This is grand," said Andrew. “You fly so well. I
feel like I am floating across the sky."
"Yes, this is how the young horses should learn
to fly with a person on their back," said White Horse.
“Now let me take you back home.”
White Horse landed back in Andrew's yard.
Andrew jumped off the flying horse.
"Yes, I can help you teach your young horses,”
said Andrew. “Do we go now?"
“It is good that you will help us. Thank you,
Andrew," said White Horse. “The young horses only
fly at night in the moonlight. I will come and get you
when you are dreaming. I must go now." White
Horse flapped his‘huge wings and went up into the
sky.
Andrew opened his eyes. He was lying in the
shade of a big tree in his yard,
“I must have been dreaming," said Andrew. “But
White Horse seemed so real."
He went into his home. That very night when he
was asleep, White Horse came into his room and got
Andrew. They flew to the land of flying horses.
Andrew rode five young horses that night. At
first the young horses did not fly well with Andrew
on their back. But after a little while, they learned
how to fly well with him. White Horse took Andrew
back to his room, and Andrew went back to sleep.
Now, two or three nights each week, White
Horse comes and gets Andrew to help him teach the
young horses. Andrew loves helping the young horses
learn how to fly with a person on their back. He is
having fun.
