Beloved by young girls around the world, Hasbro's My Little Pony franchise has been mired in controversy since its debut in the early 1980s. Critics dismissed the cartoons as toy advertisements, and derided their embrace of femininity. The 2010 debut of the openly feminist My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic renewed the backlash, as its broad appeal challenged entrenched notions about gendered entertainment. This first comprehensive study of My Little Pony explores the history and cultural significance of the franchise through Season 5 of Friendship Is Magic and the first three Equestria Girls films. The brand has continued to be on the receiving end of a sexist double standard regarding commercialism in children's entertainment, while masculine cartoons such as the Transformers have been spared similar criticism.

Join the Cutie Mark Crusaders in the fourth book of the Ponyville Mysteries series as they solve the mystery of the Peryton Panic!

But if resident animal expert Fluttershy can't tell them what it is, what are the fillies to do? Luckily, their new friend, Lilymoon, might have some hints from her studies before she came to Ponyville...if their strange dreams and bouts of sleeplessness don't put them off the case first. And when Princess Luna starts showing up in their nightmares, the Cutie Mark Crusaders know that something big is ahoof! Ideal for younger readers, these mysterious and sweetly spooky stories are sure to appeal to all My Little Pony fans--both girl and boy.

The ponies are having an ice-skating party, and each pony plans to share a special skating trick. But Pinkie Pie doesn't even know how to skate! Will she be able to learn in time for the party?
