My Review
The was a fantastic graphic novel. I just had to read it in one sitting it was that much fun. This is definitely a perfect book for all those horse mad fans from ages 10 plus and even me a adult enjoyed reading it. I found it especially interesting that the author created some wonderful highly emotional characters. That were very different from each other that caused some conflict which the author handled brilliantly. As we all know horse fans have there different levels of dedication to horse riding and I thought she made the characters relatable to everyday issues at the stables. I especially loved Victoria having been burnt by a previous best friend was very reluctant and responded with not wanting to make friends but this soon changed through the books brilliant development. The characters developments showed the right way to make friends which is brilliant life lessons. I really loved the pictures in this book they were so colourful and the horses were beautiful. The really captured great emotions and created a great sense of atmosphere and tension. I loved ever aspect of this horse graphic novel and truly hope the author creates more horse ones. I really can't recommend this book enough.
Only the highest of praise goes out to the author and publishers for creating such a fantastic story that I'm positive every horse fan will love. As its very relatable and thoroughly enjoyable. I have to mention how much I loved the attitude change in the characters by the ending.
