The Harness of the Lord Laurie Salisbury

Ten-year-old Jack Warren has had it up to here with raking leaves. But his plan of escape takes a whole different direction than his original idea, leading him to a six-horse-team of harnessed horses pulling the fanciest carriage he has ever seen. His sister doesn't believe him, his dad doesn't want to talk about it, and things take a surprising turn when Grandpa comes for a visit. Jack learns the hard way that obedience takes practice, and sometimes it hurts. The lessons of the harness may be painful, but the reward outshines the pain.
