Norse mythology is reflected in the storytelling

Beautifully written by Krista Ruepp, Winter Pony is the story of a special bond between a young girl named Anna, and an Icelandic pony she calls Prince. But the pony is a winter pony - come summer, he must travel with his herd to the mountains, and leave Anna behind. A glimmer of Norse mythology is reflected in the storytelling, enhanced with rapturous color illustrations by Ulrike Heyne which bring to life a timeless and classically beautiful story of trust and friendship.
