Caldecott winner about an Indian girl who chooses to live with a herd of wild horses and eventually becomes one--the mare companion to the great, charismatic stallion. A young girl's dream.... ( )

This book is about a little indian girl who is always with the horses. One day a storm comes up and the girl is swept away with the spooked horses far from her family.

I loved this book so much when I was little. I was definately a horse crazy girl. The way the book is written, you feel like you know the girl and start to really picture a girl who lives with wild horses. The pictures are beautiful too They play a part in the native american feel as well.

This would be a great mulitcultural book to use when you are studying about Native American culture. You could also use this book to talk about the bond some people experience with animals. I know many horse crazy people like myself who know what this book is talking about when it talks about the girl becoming one of the horses in the herd.

This is a great book about a girl who cared for animals. It is a cultural book that shows how speacil animals are and how important they are to this precious girl. Loved this book! ( )

Gives insight to Native American culture. A good book to read when studying about Native Americans.

There was a girl in the village who loved horses... She led the horses to drink at the river. She spoke softly and they followed. People noticed that she understood horses in a special way.' And so begins the story of a young Native American girl devoted to the care of her tribe's horses. She eventually becomes one of them to forever run free. This is another great tale to teach about the Native American culture.
