5.0 out of 5 stars Star in Danger, September 5, 2005

A Kid's Review

This review is from: Star in Danger (Thoroughbred) (School & Library Binding)

In Star in Danger, Wonders Star might be in trouble. When Star was born, his dam, Ashleighs Wonder, the famous x-racehorse. Wonder was born a small and silcky foal at Townsend Acres. No one thought Wonder would live but one girls love for Wonder guided the foal to become a promising yearling and then a great racehorse. Wonder won the Kentucky Derby, lost the Preakness from being bumped, coming in second, and won the Belmont Stakes plus the Breedeers Cup Classic with Ashleigh Griffen riding her. Soon Wonder was retiered and produced many famous offsprings. Wonders Pride, just losing the Tripple Crown, Townsend Princess, who broke her leg during a freak accident and after a long recovery, rebroke her leg during a race and almost died but became a proud a great broodmare. Mr.Wonderful, won stakes races, and not to forget Wonders Champion. Champion followed in his mothers footsteps and won the Tripple Crown, and Dubia World Cup, along with many other stakes races. Then Wonders last foal, Wonders Legacy. Legacy was sold by Christina, Ashleigh and Mikes daughter. Legacy was sold in a trade so Chris can get Sterling Dream. But after a while, Ashleigh and Brad Townsend, who ownes half owner ship in Wonder and all her offsprings. They bred Wonder to one of Mikes stallions, Jazzman. But due to age, Wonder died and her foal, Wonders Star became an orphaned. Christina has broguht Star up to become a promising yearling until Ashleigh let Brad take Star to Townsend Acres for trainig. Chris visited Star resently but after a while, Star was dangerous and unperdicable and unable to train. Chris knows Star needs to come back home to Whitebrook, but with Ashleigh so depresed about Wonders death, Star has to stay. His trainer hradhandles Star and Star threw his rider and squashed him while backing him. Chris was fired as Stars groom and was not allowed on Townsend Acres again. Parker, Brads son has has enough with his parents and decided to move out and stat with Sam and Tor at Whisperhood. Chris kned she needed to get Star out of their and she and Ashleigh go back to Townsend Acres to retriev Star. Before they went, Christina and Parker had their first kiss and seemed so unreal. Finally Brad and Ashleigh agreed that Star can go and train at Whitebrook farm but if he dont in one of his first 2 races, he will be sent to Townsend Acres forever. Will Chris be able to keep the horse she loves at Whitebrook or will she lose him? Find out in Star in Danger. and please go to [...]to help save the thoroughbred series.
