The White Stallion, written by Elizabeth Shub with pictures by Rachel Isadora, tells the story of young Gretchen's adventure when she fell asleep on a horse's back while her family was traveling through the Wild West in 1845. Apparently this is a retelling of a story in Tales of the Mustang by James Frank Dobie.
Anna sat spell bound through the whole book. I thought she might find it a bit long but she loved it.
Excellent choice , Jacqueline.
ReplyDeleteI like the book. It's simple and It's good for young readers.
I recommend it for 7-9 year old kids who want something longer than a picture book but is still very easy to read.
It's written in short sentences with simple vocabulary.I also think the book cover is very nice.
