Product Description

Skipingo Home is the true story of Skipingo, a full brother to Champion Skip Away, who could not replicate his older siblings triumphs on the racetrack. After Skipingo descended to the lowest levels of racing, his future looked bleak. But fate intervened, and Skipingo was reunited with his breeder and brought back home. Today, Skipingo is a successful hunter-jumper who has won championships of his own.

5.0 out of 5 stars A story sure to delight young horse lovers, August 22, 2009
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
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.
