A Horse of Her Own: Book ReviewAuthor: Annie WedekindReview by: Allison HeathA Horse of Her Own is about a girl named Jane who has been riding at sunny acres farm for years. Jane doesn't own a horse so she uses one named Beau from the barn. One day she is riding at sunny acres when she finds out terrible news, that she can no longer ride Beau. After, her trainer asked if she may want to train a horse named Lancelot. Lancelot is a great and talented horse but, can also be very dangerous. Jane must trust herself and Lancelot. If she does she may be able to ride at the end-of-summer competition and maybe even end up with a horse of her own. I thought the book A Horse of Her Own was a very heartwarming story. Annie Wedekind did a fantastic job being very descriptive. She also did a great job making the characters stand out and come to life. I think most horse loving girls would love to read this story. Can I just echo Kate Spofford's review? Like she said, it's rare to find a YA (as opposed to middle grade) novel featuring a girl and a horse. It's even rarer to find one where the horse and her relationship with it is the central focus, rather than it just being an expensive toy/side diversion for a rich girl. And regardless of the age range, I usually have to go back about 50 years to find horse books of this quality. Such a gem.
This book was really boring, and I don't recommend it :)
