Notes for the reader: A few archaic words can cause confusion for some readers. ( )

I remember reading this as a teenager and loving it. A spirited girl named Annie, who encounters more than her fair share of trials growing up, a dash of romance, and a love of horses... I was hooked. I'd have to do some research to see how accurate it is, but from what I remember, it's a good combination of story telling and history - definitely a favourite I remember. ( )

Loved Marguerite Henry's horse books enough growing up to hunt the set down as an adult. ( )
