As soon as I began reading The Horse in the Attic by Eleanor Clymer, it reminded me of Shadows by Lynn Hall. The latter is to dog lovers like the former is to horse lovers. I read Shadows multiple times growing up and if I had encountered this book of Clymer's then I would have done the same. Both books have a mystery, a character who sketches, and Ted Lewin's gorgeous, detailed illustrations that make excellent use of light and shadows.
Quick read. Not really about horses, don't be fooled by the title. Good story though.
