Monty Roberts was the son of a poor family．He liked horses．He had a dream to own a horse ranch ever since he was a little child．
One day when he was at high school, he was asked to write a paper． It was about what he wanted to be and do when he grew up．He worked hard on it, and wrote a seven-page paper．In the paper he described his dream of owning a big horse ranch someday．
The next day he handed it in to his teacher．Two days later he received his paper back．On the front page was a large red F(fail)with a note that read, “See me after class．”
