Set in the 1930s, "The Red Pony" follows a young boy named Jody Tiflin living on a ranch in California. Yearning for responsibility and adventure, Jody receives a red pony named Gabilan from his father. Through their bond, he learns about the joys of companionship and the harsh realities of life, including loss and growing up. The story is structured in four interconnected stories that explore themes of innocence, the cycle of life, and the challenges of maturity as Jody faces both the beauty and the brutality of the world around him.
