The setting for this young-reader chapter book is the early 18th century when the American Indians of the Northern Plains got their first look at a horse (ponokomita). Author K Follis Cheatham's accurate research tells about a lifestyle that existed thousands of years before the horse arrived to the plains of the Northern Rockies. The history is deftly blended in a lively adventure of a young girl who comes across a horse and takes it back to her people. The Midwest Book Review calls it - engaging, informative, and highly entertaining.

When "Spotted Flower and the Ponokomita" came out 30 years ago, Montana author K Follis Cheatham never imagined it would be a constant seller into the 21st century. It was her first published title, and is still going strong while Cheatham markets her 11th book. Cheatham has also developed a related history presentation, which she gives at State Parks, in schools, and in other venues.
For the second edition of this yound reader historical fiction, Montana artist Louise Ogemahgeshig Fischer has provided the cover art and story illustrations.
