Harry the horse may be hard of hearing, but that won't stop him from doing what he loves. Will his friends understand his new challenge?
There's nothing that Harry loves more than running in the prairie with his friends. It's a freeing feeling of the wind rushing through his hair and his hooves galloping through the grass!
During his runs with his friends, Harry enjoyed basking in nature's beauty. The wonderful smell of the grass and flowers and the sounds of bird songs were his favorites.
Despite growing up big and strong, one summer Harry began to notice that the bird songs he always listened to got quieter and quieter with every passing day. Soon, Harry lost more of his hearing... and he began trying to read the lips of his friends so he could still laugh and talk with them-without having to ask yet another time, What did you say?
Harry began to run through the fields alone, thinking it was easier for his friends to not worry about him in their conversations. However, that was the last thing Harry's friends wanted!
As Harry gallops away, his friends wonder where he's gone. Will his friends find him and tell him how much they care about playing and running with him, or will Harry wander too far for them to catch?
