“These are going to be the best cookies at our school bake sale,” Leanna assured her sister with a grin.

“Well, yeah,” Sara agreed. She popped a raisin into her mouth.

“Now that’s what I call cooking!” Sirocco said, his mouth watering.

But as he watched the girls carefully read their recipe, measure and mix ingredients, then spoon balls of cookie dough onto a baking sheet, Sirocco felt his tail droop and his ears sag. The butterflies in his magic halo grew sad, too.

“That looks pretty complicated,” the colt whispered to himself in a trembly voice. “How is anybody supposed to keep all those ingredients straight? Not to mention their measurements!”

Natural talent or no, he really didn’t know if he could pull off the Great Wind Dancer Cook-Off!

Usually Sirocco looked to sweet Brisa, soothing Kona, and steady Sumatra to boost his confidence when it flagged.

But the fillies weren’t there.

And he was invisible to Leanna and Sara, so they couldn’t comfort him.

Which meant he had no one.

“I’m all alone in the world!” the colt neighed. “And more importantly, in the kitchen! What am I going to do?”

Before he could come up with an answer, Sirocco was distracted by a scuttling sound on the grass below him. He fluttered off the kitchen windowsill to have a look—and saw two scampering squirrels tussling over a pinecone.

Squirrels!

“How could I have forgotten?” Sirocco whinnied, his spirits lifting. “I’ll go visit Gray the Squirrel. He built our apple tree house and he refereed our soccer competition. I bet he can help me with my big problem!”

With a happy nicker, Sirocco dashed to Gray’s nest in an oak tree not too far away. When the colt arrived, he thrust his nose through Gray’s kitchen window.

“Gray! You’ve got to help me!” Sirocco whinnied. “I’m nowhere near ready for the cook-off today!”

The plump squirrel was sitting at his kitchen table, eating acorns. He looked completely unsurprised to see Sirocco’s horsy face poking into his house.
