The author has done a good job with abridging this familiar story into a form that both younger and older readers can enjoy. There's enough "horse" talk to satisfy a corral-full of preteen girls, yet not too much to bore an adult unfamiliar with racetrack lore. Nice read. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML: Who would have believed that a knobby-kneed little colt named Seabiscuit would become one of the most celebrated racehorses of all time? Although Seabiscuit was the grandson of the legendary Man O' War, he was neither handsome nor graceful. His head was too big, his legs were too short, and his gallop was awkward. During the depths of the Great Depression, Seabiscuit won against incredible odds and uplifted the hearts of Americans from the streets to the White House. Originally published in 1962, this classic recounts the thrilling tale of the plucky horse who refused to quit, the down-on-his-luck jockey who didn't let horrendous accidents keep him out of the saddle, and the taciturn trainer who brought out the best in both. Moving and inspirational, Come on Seabiscuit! is a reminder of the qualities that make a real American champion. .Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
