On her last week of summer holidays, Isabel was staying at Dreams Hotel in the Pyrenees. On her first morning there, she woke up very early to go to the stables. She had a dream. She wanted to go horse riding in the mountain. In the stables, she met George. He took care of the horses, and he was going to be her trainer, to help her learn how to ride a horse.

On her first day, Isabel first talked to the horses. Then, she put on a helmet and some boots and rode a few minutes in the practice area. ‘Sit straight and put your shoulders back’, said George continuously. ‘Keep your fingers round the reins, always’, added George. ‘Look ahead, don’t look at the horse’, repeated George many times.
