Chapter 7

Eustace had many reasons for wanting to ride horses across country.  The person that he wants to take with him is his brother, Judson.  He wants to spend more time with him and get him more involved in nature.  Eustace remembers his brother being locked up in his room playing games and not outdoors enjoying nature.  He thought this would be a perfect time to teach Judson as much as he could. He also loved horses and thought it would be a great experience to ride across the country.  One of the most important events that happened on the trip was just how Eustace treated the animals on the journey.  It just showed how connected he was with nature.  One example was with the mule, Peter Rabbit.  The mule had injured Judson and Eustace just got right in his face and spent hours making sure the mule wouldn’t act out again.  Of course, it worked eventually after very long painful time but it worked.  It just showed how he could control animals well.
