A Horse’s Tale
By Susan Lubner
Illustrated by Margie Moore
Review by Irene Grove 

 

 

 

 

This is an adorable story set in Colonial Williamsburg.  The story centers on an unhappy horse.  The setting is beautifully illustrated and takes you back to the time of Colonial Williamsburg.  The town people try to help the horse that has run away from his owner and seems very unhappy.  They try fixing his horseshoes and taking special care of him.  One character notices him snuggling with another horse and brings it to everyone’s attention.  They discover the horse is just lonely and provide him with another horse to be friends with.  The story shows caring amongst friends. 

The best part of the book is the illustrations.  The pictures look just like Colonial Williamsburg and make you want to visit the actual place.  There is also a Glossary in the back of the book that explains each of the jobs and people mentioned in the story.

I would recommend the book to everyone with children especially if they enjoy history.
