This, and all of Farley's other horse books, still remain vivid in my mind, 35 years after avidly reading them as a pre-teen---and I hate horses (I think they're stupid, dangerous, overrated beasts)!

Book is great. My kids hang on every word. Amazon- not so great. I ordered a hard cover and got a paperback. I let Amazon know and they replaced it with another paperback.

I figured Amazon needed the money more than me and decided not to get my discount. My kids and I are continuing to read our paperback.
