Sign up for LibraryThing to find out whether you'll like this book. No current Talk conversations about this book. Exciting reading despite being more about the hurricane force Tidal Storm than about the beloved new little foal. The opening drawing and map enhance the entire story, where Chincoteague means "land across water" and Assateague means "outrider." Pony Penning, though justified so ponies do not overcome the island, still need to be set up so that no pony is EVER AGAIN IN DANGER of drowning. Both STORMY and MISTY are so well written that it is nearly impossible for kids not to believe they are real. A raging storm slashes across Assateague and Chincoteague islands. Water is everywhere! The wild ponies and the people must battle for their lives. In the midst of the storm, Misty—the famous mare of Chincoteague—is about to give birth. Paul and Maureen are frantic with worry as the storm rages on…Will Misty and her colt survive? This is the thrilling story of the hurricane that destroyed the wild herds of Assateague, and how strength and love helped rebuild them. no reviews | add a review
