Galloping Away

By: Kolb, Robin

In the classic style of Misty of Chincoteague, with the modern world of The Forgotten Horse, this middle grade story of the true bond between a girl and her colt leads to adventures, heartache, and resilience.

When almost 13-year-old Alex forms a true bond with a newborn colt, she secretly promises to make him her own. But like all horses born on her family's Rosen Ranch, this colt is slated to be sold.

Alex thinks if she can prove herself a capable horse trainer, there might be a chance to keep the colt. But when her attempt to work with a spirited filly ends in disaster, her secret hope is shattered.

Now Alex must rebuild trust with her parents--and regain confidence in herself--before her dream horse gallops away forever.
