My Pony Review
This is a beautiful book. The story is told very simply because for those of us who are, or have ever been, horse lovers, the first line, "I want a pony. I want a pony more than anything else in the world." is all it takes for our hearts to fill with emotion. There is a bond between horses and their people that comes out through the pictures in a way that most books cannot illustrate. This is a must have book for any horse lover in your house no matter the age (because in our hearts, we will always want a pony).
My Pony Overview
My Pony Written and illustrated by Susan Jeffers I want a pony. I want a pony more than anything in the world. At the heart of Susan Jeffers's exquisite picture book lies the idea that in her imagination, a child can journey anywhere and do anything-even fly through the stars on her very own pony. Susan Jeffers, an avid equestrian and horse owner, effortlessly captures the grace and magic of horses in this luminous children's picture book. My Pony is a landmark book in Ms. Jeffers's career, for not only is it the first book she's both written and illustrated, but it is also inspired by her own experiences as a young girl who wished for a pony and channeled that desire onto paper. Ms.Jeffers is a New York Times best-selling artist. She was a Caldecott Honor recipient for Three Jovial Huntsmen, she illustrated Love Songs of the Little Bear by Margaret Wise Brown, and continues to illustrate the best-selling McDuff series by Rosemary Wells
