A Kid's Review

This is a really cool horse book. I read the other book in the series last year. It is called Blackjack. This one was even better!!! I didn't know how Blackjack would get cured or how Heather and Frosty would get out of the woods. I read it really fast too cause I didn't want to stop.

A Kid's Review

I read Blackjack which is the first book in this series and thought it was the best horse book ever. Then I read Frosty and I liked it just as much. This is a really cool series. I love how real the horses are and all the horse show stuff and trail riding stuff is neat.
