Description

Leah's pony is swift and strong. Together they ride through cornfields and over pastures, chasing cattle as they gallop under summer skies. But now locusts have blackened the sky and the earth has turned to dust. It is the beginning of the great drought. And Leah's papa faces losing the family farm.

Leah’s Pony
Reviewed by Sara Masarik
I spotted Leah’s Pony at a library sale. Unfamiliar with Elizabeth Friedrich or Michael Garland, I was curious. The cover image is beautifully life-like and held so much promise that we previewed the book right there in the middle of the sale. My quick read told me that it was absolutely good enough to bring home with me. At home, when I had the chance to sit down and read a stack of picture books with my coffee, it became one of my favorites from the sale.
