Angel the horse

This is the coolest Christmas toy. My sister sent it from Italy. It's a battery-operated horse, which trots across the floor to a certain rhythm, then whinnies convincingly. We named the horse Angel and the cowboy Brokeback. It was just too much fun to play with. My mother wanted me to bring it home but I thought it should stay with the ceramic Italian villagers, whose numbers have grown impressively.
