This review is from: Skipingo Home: A Thoroughbred's Second Chance (Hardcover)
My family had the pleasure of meeting Ms. Bailey and Skipingo at the Scott County Library. My 3 year-old loved the book and took her copy to her daycare the next day to share with her friends. A wonderful story with beautiful illustrations.

A story sure to delight young horse lovers,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Skipingo Home: A Thoroughbred's Second Chance (Hardcover)
Skipingo Home: A Thoroughbred's Second Chance is the true story of a real-life, modern-day race horse. Skipingo was the brother of a famous champion horse, but didn't quite achieve the same greatness on the racetrack. With only two wins over the course of his career, it seemed he was destined for a sad fate - but the commercial breeder who raised him had a soft spot for him. She re-acquired him and trained him for the show ring, where he shined as a champion. Realistic color illustrations balance the simple yet moving text, told in first-person from Skipingo's perspective. The result is a story sure to delight young horse lovers.
