With tears, laughter and a lot of hard work, can the London Olympics only be a dream, or can dreams really come true?
I loved this novel by Olga Duckworth. A very heartwarming and moving story of a beloved pony. It drew me in and I was lost in its magic. Huge well done and I’m looking forward to book 2.
