What evidence from the text BEST supports the idea that Grandin loved the saddle her mom gave her?
Animals kept me going. I spent every waking minute that I didn’t have to be studying or going to school with those horses. I even rode Lady at a show.
But I had no understanding of this as a girl. I was never mean to the horses at the school (the other kids were sometimes), but I wasn’t any horse-whispering autistic savant, either.
I brought it up to my dorm every day and kept it with me. I bought special saddle soap and leather conditioner from the saddle shop, and I spent hours washing and polishing it. …
One of the high points of my high school career was the day my mom bought me a really nice English bridle and saddle.
