Boy, was Laura embarrassed! Needless to say, after all of that, she found out that the boy she was trying to impress liked her just the way she was!

In this classic episode, Nellie begged her mother to buy her a different and better horse.

As it turned out, Laura and Bunny won, and they received a Blue Ribbon and Mrs. Oleson's gold punch bowl. Laura kept the Blue Ribbon and gave the bowl back, because it had belonged to Mrs. Oleson's mother.

In exchange for her generosity, she got shoes for the whole family.
