Foal in the Fog

This book was a great horse mystery. It is by Ben Baglio and is good for a person who likes ghosts or horses. It was written well, and it has a good plot and well described characters that seem real. The main character, Mandy, is kind and likes animals, and her cousin Louise is outgoing and funny. The plot takes place at Whitehorse Stables. Mandy is going to visit her cousin Louise. While riding, Mandy hears a car crash and sees a strange foal in fog. Later, they visit Louise's friend, Anna, and Mandy finds out that Anna's old foal died in a car crash in fog. It turns out only Anna and Mandy can see the foal, and Anna thinks the foal has come back to hurt her. In the end, Anna learns that the foal didn't want to hurt her, just help another horse and make her feel better. Anna adopts the horse the foal saved, and Mandy names him Wisp. The theme of the book is that sometimes you have to move on. I would recommend this book to kids 12 and under. Girls or boys could read this book, but I think girls would like it the most.

This book is a sad yet Life learning experience. Such as friendship and Death.The main charecter is Mandy Hope since her parents have ever started there buiesnes Animal Haven she has cared for animals and there souls since then. This also shoes how somthing bad can turn into somthing happy and beautiful.

Have you ever seen a ghost? I know most people don't believe in ghosts, but this one was so real: Curiosity is the ghost and she is a pony that died in a car accident. Mandy the protagonist had to help Abby get over her pony's death and to try to help her stop blaming herself for Curiosity's death. Mandy is Louise's cousin; Abby is Louise's friend. Abby had been seeing her pony's ghost for a while and when Mandy came to visit her cousin Mandy saw the ghost too. Abby told Mandy that it was her pony's ghost and she was right it was. What was Mandy to do? Who was she to turn to get help? It was up to Mandy. This book is for any pony or horse lover. I found it to be very exciting .This novel made me feel like I should just keep reading like a what's going to happen next? kind of book. The setting of this book was great, a well kept up clean farm with hills of a dark green grass and then the barn the was a red brown brick color and with the grass surrounding that barn made it all the more beautiful. The farm had lots of ponies-- twelve ponies to be exact. A lot of times I felt like I was in the story; I mean I would just imagine myself being in the situation with Mandy. Well anyway I had a great time reading this book. Overall it was a great book to read. At some points the book moved a little slow but I gathered the details from that section and just read on to enjoy the rest of the book and to figure out the mystery.

A really great story - one of the best Animal Arks.My daughter adored it, and it has really helped her reading come on.
