Why read it?
1 author picked The Wild One as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
It’s probably been 20 years since I’ve read this book, but it’s stuck with me. I love the idea of horses in the wild having secret bonds with humans. The concept of secret names may or may not be something that I’ve tried with my own horses—only they can confirm that for you! This is a great story of the deep bonds that run between horses and people.
From Sydney's list on for horse crazy kids.
