Reviews
Expected this to be a little bit of a dry read but it was mostly a fantastic and a very engaging read. (Kat)
Great book. I really enjoyed reading it. There is so much work gone into producing it and it brings back such memories of all the pony books and authors I know and introduced me to some others. (Suki)
Excellent entertaining reference for anyone who loves horse stories. Very well written. (Amazon customer)
