My Thoughts:
- I thought Elska was super cute, but this book was just as cute with an element of danger. I loved it!
- These are some very well written intermediate books. I'm so glad Gnome and I found these.
- Katie and Star are so brave, and they just want to do what is right, no matter the cost.
- The message of this book is something we all need.
- Gnome loved that the girl and horse were trying to help another person. I'm really proud of her for understanding and sympathizing with this story.
