Customer Reviews

Great book

This book is Very good. I enjoyed it because I LOVE HORSES! I recomend it to horse lovers.

Interesting

This is a book about a boy named Tom who trains an unruly horse named Horton Chancellor. He works with Chancey every day calming him down in time for the Benbridge show, his snotty cousin returns home early and rides him instead. Tom still wins Benbridge on Feather, the little white mare. In the end Tom rescues Georgina and Chancey, and he gets to keep Chancey. I didn't like how Tom called Napoleon a "stupid animal" in the beginning. That was so mean!

Great!

This was such a great book that once I began reading it, I couldn't put it down! I had no idea what was going to happen to Chancey near the end and I wasn't sure how Tom was going to keep Chancey...This was a great book that's worth reading no matter how old you are! Just make sure you read the series in order because that way it makes more sense.

A Great Book!!!

This is a great book for any age group and it kept me turning pages all day long. Sandy Lane seems like such a great stable and if I could I would ride there. Michelle Bates gives great descriptions and I hope that there are a lot more good Sandy Lane books to come!
