Eileen Meyler
Eileen Meyler wrote a series of seven books about the Elwood family, of which Adventure on Ponies is one. None of the other books, as far as I know, have very much pony content: Johnnie and Prue and their adventures are at the heart of the series.
Finding the book: easy and cheap to find in both its incarnations.
