Wholesome adventure for young readers

THE SHADOW HORSE is delightfully wholesome family fiction depicting a young Indian boy who tames a wild mustang and becomes a local hero by rounding up the stallion's band of roaming ranch horses and uncovering a cattle rustling scheme. Using authentic Indian techniques taught to him by his grandfather, the young Southern Ute camps alone in the mountains and stumbles onto adventure in the wild. This precious story of bonding with animals and life in the great outdoors offers young readers a refreshing escape from electronics and video games.
