Reviews
Kindergarten-Grade 3–Readers who enjoyed Anna and Prince in Winter Pony (2002) and Runaway Pony (2005, both North-South), will welcome their return, but this book also stands alone as an engaging story of a young girl and her spirited horse. Prince is now four years old and ready to be trained. With her father's help, Anna introduces him to the bridle and saddle and, finally, the weight of a rider on his back. Before long, in spite of a few bucks and a fall, the child and her friend Sean are galloping along the beach together and anticipating future adventures. Both characters are expressive and appealing, and, once again, the subtle watercolor illustrations, with rolling hills, soft green fields, and sandy beaches on single pages and spreads, celebrate the beauty of the Icelandic countryside.–Carol Schene, formerly at Taunton Public Schools, MA

At four years old, Anna's horse, Prince, is finally old enough to ride, though still untrained. With help from her father and Sean, a boy from a neighboring farm, Anna gradually accustoms Prince to the bit, the bridle, the saddle, and the weight and presence of a rider on his back. First published in Switzerland, the simply written but engaging story has wide appeal. Broad landscape paintings alternate with smaller scenes more tightly focused on the characters. Thanks to Heyne's compelling paintings, viewers can feel the wind and rain in the scenes as they watch the action unfold. From the series that includes Winter Pony (2002) and Runaway Pony (2005), this large-format picture book will captivate children who love horses. Carolyn Phelan
