Dude Ranch (The Saddle Club, Book 6)
The founders of The Saddle Club -- Stevie Lake,  Carole Hanson,  and Lisa Atwood -- gear up for the  adventure of their lives when their  friend Kate Devine  invites them to her family's dude ranch. They will   have a whole week of cowboy-style riding, plus the  fun of making Kate  a club  member.But when they arrive, the girls soon realize   there's more to the West than Hollywood shootout and  colorful  costumes. To show a cowhand that they're  not just "dumb dudes," they  pitch in with  chores and help on a cattle roundup, where Stevie  has a  run-in with a dangerous rattlesnake. Another  sour note for Stevie: Her  birthday is coming up,  and no one seems to care. Little does she know  that  her Saddle Club buddies have a top-secret surprise  in the works  for her!
