Great, Awesome, Favorite book of all time!

I loved Night Mare. Janet is thirteen and her parents won't buy her a horse. Her coach gladly lends her the stables horse and Janet is ungreatful. The horse is slow and clumsy. When she meets a horse at night she can't tell if it's real or not. She visits again and discovers that the owners were ghosts. Janet alone sets their spirts free.

If you love horses, you've got to read this!

When Janet has a dream about a beautiful horse named Storm, she decides to find it. The events after that are incredible. Vicki Kamida combines adventure with mystery to make a great story!Once I started this book, I couldn't put it down! Vicki Kamida wrote it so well that one event kept leading to another. There was never really a stop to all the amazing events that happened in the story. Unexpected events, like at the end, made it even more interesting! I'm not that much of a horse lover, but I must admit this book was great! No doubt about it! I would recommend it to anyone who loves animals, especially horses!

It made me cry

This is a wonderful book, and I recommend it to all readers. It's about a thirteen year-old girl that dreams about a horse that takes her to a part of a canyon that she's never been to before. Later, when she comes back to the place where the horse dumps her, she is surprised to find a ranch. This is a well-written book, and it made me cry at the end. In fact, it was so good I read it five times.
