My Pony

My girls LOVE horses. This is a really cute book, with great pictures about a little girl and how she loves ponies. It's totally worth it!

This has become a book for our special collection-my daughter received it for Christmas at age 4 & still loves it a year later. The illustrations are truly beautiful (as are all of Susan Jeffers illustrated books), and the story is sweet & appropriate for young kids (I'd say 10 and under). It's a story about a young girl who wants a pony, and draws & dreams up her own.

Beautiful illustrations and nice story too. Little girl instory longs for a horse. Gets one in her dreams. Author'sown childhood desire for a horse was the inspiration forher artistic talent at drawing horses. She states that shenow owns horses and tries to ride every day. Inspiringmessage for horse lovers. Never give up on dreams!

My Pony/horse obsessed 3 yr-old daughter received this on Christmas eve from her Aunt and just loves it. It is one of those books that is just mesmerizing to her. It has also been helpful in showing her that she can have "her pony" in her imagination as well. It is really a sweet tale that has already been described in detail so I will simply leave it at that.

My Pony is a wonderfully enchanting story of a young girl?s dream of having her own pony. Each night when the young girl is supposed to be doing her homework, she dreams of riding her pony. The pony, Silver, comes to life when the young girl draws the beautiful dapples and shiny coat. Together at last, the girl and Silver ride the clouds and visit a fantasy world. Susan Jeffers? latest story is beautifully illustrated and eloquently narrated. The words of the story combined with awesome illustrations seem to drip like honey off of the pages of this book. Jeffers? has done a spectacular job. This book is filled with whimsical fantasy allowing the reader to escape to a world filled with beauty and wonder. This book is told from the young girl?s point of view and the reader will quickly become lost in the story. Even though this book is keyed to young girls, ?old girls? are sure to revel in it as well. This book would be highly recommended and considered a valuable addition to any children?s library. The breathtaking illustrations, done in fine line pen and watercolor, make a significant contribution to be viewed as an example of art for children.
