As a fairly typical young girl who loved horses, I enjoyed my copy of Anne Sewell's book as a child. It was dog-eared from re-reading, I quite literally much loved that book to bits. I think I enjoyed it most because there was never a point in which the house were anthropomorphised and reduced in dignity.

This is a faithful retelling that captures the original beautifully.
