A Great Addition to the Treasured Horses series,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Kate's Secret Plan: The Story of a Young Quarter Horse and the Persistent Girl Who Will Not Let Obstacles Stand in Their Way (Treasured Horses) (Paperback)
It's Kate's tenth birthday, and her mind is stuck on her all-time dream...owning a horse. When her wish finally comes true and her parents present her with a beautiful Quarter Horse by the name of Chinook, Kate has a new dream. She is sure that Chinook will make a great cutting horse, but only one problem: her nasty neighbor, Jimmy, is planning on entering the contest riding Chinook. Her distant dreams seem impossible, considering that the contest is for boys only. But then a contest between her and Jimmy changes everything. Will she get to compete in the contest after all...and maybe even win? Takes place in 1924 in Canada. This book gives an example of the real-life events of men having more advantages than women, and how some persistant girls faught for their rights. A great story, considering that I am an owner of a Quarter Horse myself, and I learned a lot about them from this story. You don't have to be a horse-lover to fall in love with the characters in this book. Highly recommended!

Kate's Secret Plan - GREAT BOOK,

I love horse books and this is one of my favorites. I liked it because it showed how you can do whatever you want to do even if you are a girl. Girls can do equally as well as boys when they put their mind to something. I like it when people do what they want by putting their mind to accomplish something. Kate showed her courage in this book. It is also fun to read and you can learn a lot about quarter horse

Only okay.,

This review is from: Kate's Secret Plan: The Story of a Young Quarter Horse and the Persistent Girl Who Will Not Let Obstacles Stand in Their Way (Treasured Horses) (Paperback)
This new book in the Treasured Horses series was not one of my favorites. It was set in Canada in 1926. It was about a girl who wants to compete in the cattle cutting contest at the fair with her horse, Chinook. But the contest is only for boys. The ending was way too perfect and neat. Overall, I was very dissapointed by this book.
