Miskeen means "poor" in Pashto, a good name for this unlucky horse

I am over 60 yrs old, a mad horse lover and animal advocate, and read just about everything I can find about them. This true story is about a horse in Russia and neighboring areas of Asia who ends up in a circus, and gives a story from the horse's point of view, about his experiences there, as well as a cruel punishment he suffered which he never deserved; it does have a reasonably happy ending. I personally liked the book, but would place the caveat that I think it might not be a good choice for some kids; It is a good advertisement for PETA, and makes one see circuses in an unfavorable way which some may find upsetting. (possibly not a bad thing!)
