Will I love The One Dollar Horse?

I absolutely love this book even though it’s written in British English. It’s a great rags-to-riches, character-driven story that communicates the thrill of eventing. You never know what you’re going to get with horses until you’ve got it. Sometimes the one-dollar horses can be just as great as the six-figure ones. The story will stick with you long after the book is finished!

The heroine in this modern-day rags-to-riches pony book is fifteen-year-old Casey Blue. Casey lives in an East London tower block, helps out at a local riding school, and dreams of winning the world’s biggest three-day event, the Badminton Horse Trials.

Like all the best pony books, there’s a half-starved horse to be rescued and brought back to health before Casey can even think about realising her dream.

The odds are against her, but if anything can make it happen, it’s the incredible bond between Casey and her big grey horse, Storm Warning. 

Full of equestrian knowledge and capturing the highs… show more.
