| Summary | "The Story of a White Rocking Horse" by Laura Lee Hope is a children’s storybook likely written in the early 20th century. This work is part of a series known as "Make-Believe Stories," which centers around the whimsical adventures of toys coming to life when no human eyes are watching them. The book primarily explores themes of friendship, adventure, and the emotional bond between children and their toys. In this enchanting tale, a charming white rocking horse longs for companionship and excitement as he interacts with various toys in a department store after hours. The story unfolds with a playful race between the rocking horse and an elephant on roller skates. However, the excitement is interrupted by a rude boy who mistreats the toys, especially the rocking horse. The horse eventually finds a kind master in a boy named Dick, who receives him as a Christmas gift. After a whirlwind of fun, misadventures, and even a daring encounter with burglars, the rocking horse ultimately takes part in a joyful grass party, solidifying his place in Dick's loving home—a heartwarming exploration of childhood imagination and the joy of friendship among toys.
