The Story Outline of "The Runaway Racehorse”

This story is about the racehorse missing. Different from the previous ones，the horse was back in the beginning. However，they discovered something strange but didnot know the reason. The most unblievable was that Whirlaway lost the race. Ruth Rose checked the photos she took，and she compared the one of jockey Sunny with Whirlaway and the one of Dink and Josh standing by the winner horse. The kids found two horses looked the same except the color of their forehead. So they went to check the winner horse. In the meanwhile，Sunny took Whirlway to blood test in vets because she thought it suspicious. Finally，The stolen and horse replacement has came to light.

By the way，at the start of the story，the author mentioned that every capital letters of the book titles have special meanings. And this R book is dedicated to the readers.

这是个有趣的故事，他并没让读者直接看到主线，但读到百分之二十的时候我们会抓住阅读的主线还是如何找到丢失的马以及偷马的人。可疑人物比较简单，只有两个。故事中最精彩的部分当属horserace那段，很有现场感。并且muddy puddle在文中又出现了，Mr. Roy 有多爱小猪佩奇啊。为了写这部小说，作者亲自到Saratoga赛马场做过调研，所以能对那里的地形和现场细节描述的很生动。为作者的认真点赞。
