Piper’s Pony Tales

Piper’s Pony Tales is a Canadian preschool show which mostly uploads on Epic Story Media’s official YouTube channel. The show is about a little girl named Piper who dreams of owning a pony. She uses her imagination to transport her and her friends into a land where they all own ponies. Alongside are friends Paloma and Casey. Paloma is an intelligent horse groomer and likes to enter for competitions and dressages, but sometimes gets too carried away in winning. Casey is Piper’s neighbor and friend and likes things like being a cowboy, but doesn’t know much about horse riding like Piper and Paloma. But he still tries his best anyway.

## Setting

The show takes place in a farm-and-kingdom-like land, as there are stables and hay which represents a farm, and is a castle, and sometimes there are royal balls and princess themed picnics and tea parties. The name of the land is currently unknown, but sometimes the land is called Piper’s Pony land.
