Princess Ellie is crazy about horses! The palace is buzzing with preparations for the royal jubilee party, but all Ellie wants to do is sneak off to the stable yard. Ellie is worried about Starlight. There's something wrong and Meg, the palace groom, won't tell her what it is. To take her mind off it, Ellie goes for a ride on the beach with her friends. But then disaster strikes. Will they get back in time for the party, and will they ever find out what's wrong with Starlight?

Customer Reviews

Great stories with a bit of adventure

My 6 yr-old loves Princess Ellie, not least because she is fortunate enough to have a horse of her own and can relate to all the "horsey" adventures. We bought the first two in the series then bought a few others as we couldn't wait to find out what happened next. They're fun stories, with short enough chapters to keep children interested. There are no colour illustrations, just a few pen and ink ones, so I wouldn't recommend the books for kids under 6.

Great books that are age appropriate

My four year old daughter loves these books. We've read every one of them. She sits quietly through 5 or 6 chapters a night. It depends on the child of course, but these books are more than suitable for children 4 and above.
