Synopsis
From the first brilliant rush of horses to the triumphant sight of beautiful bays, chestnuts, shiny blacks, whites, grays, and paints galloping across the pages, Paul Goble's very special book will delight all who love horses and all who love stories that tell of the spiritual connection between people and animals. His magnificent, detailed paintings evoke an almost forgotten world as he recounts a stirring legend based on the oral tradition of the Pawnee. Focusing on a poor boy and his grandmother, adventure begins when the boy discovers an old, limping horse. Though ridiculed by his tribe, the boy cares for the horse and brings it back to health. In turn, the animal helps his friend achieve greatness, only to be betrayed. The boy's remorse is sincere, but will he be forgiven Captivating readers, Caldecott medalist Paul Goble shows how a loving friendship changes the lives of a people., From the first brilliant rush of horses to the triumphant sight of beautiful bays, chestnuts, shiny blacks, whites, grays, and paints galloping across the pages, Paul Goble's very special book will delight all who love horses and all who love stories that tell of the spiritual connection between people and animals. His magnificent, detailed paintings evoke an almost forgotten world as he recounts a stirring legend based on the oral tradition of the Pawnee. Focusing on a poor boy and his grandmother, adventure begins when the boy discovers an old, limping horse. Though ridiculed by his tribe, the boy cares for the horse and brings it back to health. In turn, the animal helps his friend achieve greatness, only to be betrayed. The boy's remorse is sincere, but will he be forgiven? Captivating readers, Caldecott medalist Paul Goble shows how a loving friendship changes the lives of a people., Paul Goble paints horses with such powerful controlled energy. No wonder he received the Caldecott Medal for The Girl Who Loved Wild Horses in 1978. Readers will be enchanted as he tells of an abandoned horse and the boy who loves him. Together they have a grand adventure, but one that almost ends in betrayal. Based on a Pawnee legend that celebrates our connection to the natural world, this book includes breathtaking, spirited horses: bays, chestnuts, shiny blacks, whites, grays, and paints. The art resonates with the story, and every detail is based on a lifetime of research into Plains Indian life, making this a fabulous gift for all who love horses, Indian culture, and rousing stories. Paul Goble moved to the Black Hills of South Dakota from England as a young man. He was recently honored as a Doctor of Humane Letters by the University of South Dakota, Brookings, for his contribution to literature and the preservation of Indian lore. His outstanding books, apart from the Caldecott-winning The Girl Who Loved Wild Horses, include Beyond the Ridge, Her Seven Brothers, Buffalo Woman, and Storm Maker's Tipi.
