The main character of Carlota, an exciting adventure novel by Scott O'Dell, does all these things and more. Along the way, she discovers an important lesson about person courage. Carlota is about a young, headstrong woman named Carlota de Zubaran, who lives with her grandmother and her father on a large ranch in California. Raised as a sort of surrogate for brother Carlos who died at two, Carlota brands stock and rides with the vaqueros, wears deerskin trousers, and beats the young men in a horse race during her younger sister's wedding celebration. But even though she loves to ride and is happy that it's Yris and not herself that her father is marrying to the pudgy neighboring rancher, Carlota feels the strain.
