Customer Reviews

Very realistic and fun...

I bought this book for my five year old son for Christmas. It is fun to revisit the excitement of horse stories with my own child. This book is very accurate in its illustrations and story--a really nice description of what it is like for a child who loves horses to "meet and try out" a pony of her own. The little girl in the story is excited, unaffected, and very real in her emotional responses to the events of the story. The contrast between her and Charlene, another little girl who appears to have it all (and maybe get the pony for her own too!) is moving. I would recommend this for all horse-hungry children.
