Golden Horses: Aurea the Wild Pony

Life for the ponies of the plains is beautiful, but hard. Aurea is two years old when one day a truck drives onto the plains. Her mother is startled and warns Aurea. She knows what the arrival of the humans means. "Never forget where you come from," she tells her daughter. "You are a pony of the plains. Be proud of it!" Aurea is captured, along with a group of other young ponies. This is the beginning of an exciting journey, from one stable to the next. Aurea makes new friends, like the big brown stallion Winston, and gets to know the people intimately. Some are very sweet, but there also appear to be people who don't have such kind feelings for ponies... Contents: 224 pages. Suitable for children aged 9 and up.
