Another Great book by Mackall!

Scoop meets Lefty's owner, the foal she'd helped deliver during the snowstorm a few months ago. Instantly her and her friends are struck with how much Scoop and Twila Twopennies look alike. As Scoop begin's spending time with Twila, and noticing their similarities she can't help wondering... is this her birth mother? And now Scoops spending less time with her friends, her horse, and her brother and Aunt. Will she go too far? Will she hurt those around her that love her? And is Twila truly her mother? This book was great! I just didn't want to put it down. Scoop's struggle made her realize that family is more then blood, that its also about people who are there for you and care about you. It makes you realize how blessed we are for our own family and friends

Very well written and an awesome message.1 prob w/ it though

'Home is where your horse is', is a very good book.My 1 problem that I had with it though,is that I wanted more details about Scoop and Travis's relationship,and I kinda wanted a romantic ending with Scoop and Travis.But it still was a VERY good book.My favorite thing about this book is that Dandi gives the message in this book that even though you may not be genetically related to someone,they're still your family because in the Body Of Christ,everybody is family.I find it very cool that in the end, Scoop realized that it really didn't matter at that point who her birth-mother was,she was just thankful that her birth-mom brought her into the world.And another good thing that Scoop realized,is that whatever happened,her(and Orphan)would serve the Lord.Always.
