Rating: Summary: history Review: a wonderful book, when you read it you know it must be true because of it being so unusual. I wonder if anyone out there has any historical information on this horse, because somewhere I read about this amazing horse in history in the Nebraska, Utah early days, he was talked about by the oldtimers, almost mythical, the stories were passed around the territory, by native americans, settlers . thank you

Rating: Summary: Easy to read and good! Review: I look forward to reading this book every year because the children always love it so. It is a sweet, simple, and yet engrossing tale of a little girl who lived many years ago. She was going out West with her family on a wagon train, when she is separated from them with only her horse, Anna, for company. Anna wants to go off with a white stallion and his wild mares, but she is torn between her desire for freedom and her loyalty to the Gretchen. The white stallion ends up saving the girl's life, and she is happily reunited with her family.The White Stallion is just right for 7-9 year olds who want something longer than a picture book that is still easy to read. They will also like learning a little about wagon trains and the love between a girl and her horse. It is well-written and illustrated, and I happily recommend it.
Rating: Summary: A wonderful pioneer story for children Review: This book brings back so many memories. When I was a girl, my mother bought this book for me. It's about a girl, Rachel, who gets separated from her wagon train on her horse. Her horse wanders into the woods, with the sleeping girl on her back. The girl is very afraid, but a white stallion appears and leads them back. It is really a magical story, intricately illustrated. I highly recommend it for everyone.
