First chapter, and 'Comet' the magic pony appears...

Love an author who's confident enough in their plot to not have to spend half the book meandering their way to the point... this book delivers on its title... refreshing...

Not good, a bit babyish. Not the style of books I like. Horses aren’t my favourite animals.

The book is about a pony called Comet. He was trying to find his twin sister Destiny. My favourite part was when he found Destiny, because she was in a lot of trouble. I didn't like when he had to leave the little girl who was helping him, because the little girl felt sad, and I felt sad too. I would recommend this book to kids who like ponies.
