Wonderful childern's author

This author writes great books for children that love horses. And she just doesn't stop there she runs a non-profit organization that helps children purchase Chincoteague ponies, The Feather Fund. Which is based off her book Sea Feather.

Daughter Loved It

My 6 year old daughter is getting into riding and horses. She was given this book as a Christmas present. She read it to herself every day on the way to and from school. She didn't want to put it down she thought it was so good.

Adoption

This is a great book for the young reader and Misty fan. It's about a girl who realizes she's adopted and feels like she doesn't belong in her family. She spends time at the Chincoteague Pony Farm with her favorite pony, Windy, who is pregnant, as well as Stormy, who is also pregnant and Misty's daughter. When Stormy has her baby, she rejects it, and soon Windy has her foal, and adopts Stormy's unwanted foal as well. The girl realizes that being adopted is just as important as having a real family. The story is fiction but is based on real events of Windy adopting Stormy's foal.
