From the Book Cover

A child wounded in body and spirit, a horse driven mad by pain, a woman fighting to save them both, and the man who is their only hope...

My Summary

This is a story about horses, mother-daughter relationships, a girl becoming a woman, and the great outdoors. As usual I was disappointed when seeing the movie after reading the book, mostly because a movie can't go into the great depth that the book does, but also because the ending was completely different and not at all as the author intended in the book. Adults will enjoy the story as much as adolescents, and men and boys will enjoy it as much as women and girls.
