Customer Reviews

very happy!

got the misty treasury, came in perfect condition, has that good old-book smell >v< rlly happy that I now have all 3 books in 1 to take on vacations and stuff

Bring back the old covers!

These were some of my favorite books when I was a child, but these glossy new covers just take me out of the moment! Bring back the beautiful watercolor covers by Wesley Dennis! No Marguerite Henry fan should settle for less.

A Book for All Ages

I read this the first time when I was in Elementary School (3rd or 4th grade). I loved it then, and even now, years later, I still re-read it. The book has a quality that makes it worthwhile to read- over and over and over!! I recommend it for readers of all ages. Children will love it, especially horse crazy girls! Well worth the price- it's a children's classic that should last for many, many, many years too come. It was also made into a movie (titled "Misty" in 1961, hard to find), and has at least two books that come after it. (Stormy, Misty's Foal, Misty's Twilight, and a related but not sequel book: Sea Star: Orphan of Chincoteauge).

Great Books

Marguerite Henry is a great author! I loved all of her books and thought that they were all wonderful. I thought that all of the books in this collection were wonderful, and worth reading over and over.

Misty of Chincoteague

Misty is a timeless classic and a must read for all, young and old. Read all of Marguerite's books about the ponies...I now live on Chincoteague Island and love to see the ponies and read the book every year during the Pony Swim to my young children. It is very exciting to really see the ponies swim. Thank you Marguerite for bringing this wonderful story to all of us.
