Through a series of short, humorous chapters, the story follows Kate, a young cowgirl with a can-do attitude, and her horse Cocoa, who has a mind of his own and a very large appetite. The narrative explores the sweet and sometimes stubborn bond between the pair as Kate manages the duties of ranch life while accommodating Cocoa's quirky demands.

For parents, it provides a gentle way to talk about the transition from being cared for to taking care of others, wrapped in a charming Western setting that feels both classic and fresh.
