This series is much loved by my daughter since she was about 6-7 years old. She read well early, and it was difficult to find her appropriate material to suit her age and ability. The content was very appropriate and yet fun and engaging. We now own most of the series.

My daughter is in 2nd grade. She loves to read the Keeker books on her own. They are perfect for 1st or 2nd grade-level readers (not too long, plenty of pictures, interesting stories).

Alas, this is the last book in the Keeker and the Sneaky Pony series, but it is a fine tale to end the era. Keeker is growing, and we open with an ordinary day, but the illustrations show her feet down to Plum's knees. Keeker's birthday is coming up, and her mom suggests that it may be time for a new pony for Keeker. But Keeker can't give up Plum!

This book does a lovely job of helping Keeker come of age, staying true to her beloved Plum, but also moving on and growing up. Plum gets a new little girl ("Here, girl girl girl") and Keeker starts a new partnership.

It's a worthy end to the series, but I hope that there will be more stories about Plum with her new little girl, and/or Keeker with her new Connemara.
