About the author
Gill Morrell was one of the stable of Stabenfeldt authors. She is British, and was born near London, and grew up longing to ride. She has written three titles that I have been able to find: all as far as I can see published by Stabenfeldt. The Pony Vacation was previously published as The Pony Holiday, but I can find no record of it anywhere. Her three books form a series about Jess, and her riding holidays.
Finding the books
No Stabenfeldt titles were published in the UK, but some copies have been imported and are usually available fairly cheaply here. Alternatively, you can try American sites, or Ebay.com, where bundles of titles tend to come up fairly often.

Bibliography
The Pony Vacation
Originally published as The Pony Holiday
Stabenfeldt, 2004, illus Jennifer Bell
Jess had genuinely thought that going to riding camp would be fun: but she has never ridden before, and everyone else at the camp seems frighteningly competent.
The Pony Trek
Stabenfeldt, 2006
Jess’s friend Rosie is taking her on a riding holiday: a week’s free pony trek. It seems like a dream come true until one of the trekkers starts having accidents, and all the evidence points to Jess as the culprit.
The Pony Winter
Stabenfeldt, 2007
Jess is back again for another riding holiday. Jess is more confident now around horses, but alas not around people. Mike, who was mean to her last year, seems even less trustworthy now he’s being nice.
