Denne sommer flytter tvillingebrødrene Mark og Johan og deres to smukke araberheste ind på Ponygården. Brødrene træner til DM i "Mounted Games", men da Johan falder af sin hest, Saphir, og brækker armen, mister han interessen for at ride, og Mark har nu ingen makker til DM.

Efter en alvorlig rideulykke er Sofie blevet bange for at ride. Men da hun begynder at hjælpe Karen med hendes islændere, bliver Sofie langsomt tryg ved heste igen, og især ved Alvar...

"Sofie og Alvar" er anden bog i serien om "Hestene på Ponygården", om Ditte, Sofie, Kit, Steffi og Maja - fem piger, som egentlig kun har én ting til fælles: HESTE.

Men det er ikke let at gå til ridning uden at blive opdaget - og slet ikke, hvis man vil ride flere gange om ugen.
