Wild Blue (The Breyer Horse Collection, 1) door Annie Wedekind
Horse
This book was a quick read, but if you love horses then this book is a great view of them through the eyes of a young horse-loving girl. 3Q4P The cover art is okay and I'd recommend this book for middle school and high school students. I chose to read this book because I enjoy reading about animals and like to ride horses so reading a book about a young girl that doesn't have her own horse, (like me), really pulled me in. KaraB

Dauphin (Phin) lives a life of luxury. He lives in the Chadwick stables located right in the heart of the city. His stall is actually located in the penthouse.
Phin was rescued from the carnival circuit. Instead of carting around annoying carnival children in poor working conditions, Phin now trots through the city park carrying his young owner. Together they have won prizes for the prettiest pony and the best rider.
Things are about to change for little Phin. He may be the same spry little pony, but his young owner is growing and maturing and is no longer comfortable on a small horse. She is moving up to a larger horse which leaves Phin without a rider. It doesn't quite sink in at first, but when he is packed up in a shabby trailer and transported out of the city, he begins to realize he may be headed for a different life.
Phin arrives in the countryside at a place known as the Funny Farm. He is no longer a resident of a fancy penthouse, but rather one of a group of mangy looking misfits who share a small barn, coop, and meadow. Phin finds himself living with goats, rabbits, chickens, a camel, an emu, and a water buffalo, just to name a few.
Can Phin find friends among this quirky group? Is it possible that this life can become just as rewarding as his city life?
