 One of the most interesting books Iyve Read. January 7, 2004
The story is about a family of vets, the Hope family, going on vacation with a friend named James. They are in Ireland and the kids Mandy and James are on the beach when they spot footprints , horse hoof prints . They follow the hoof prints until they find a herd and in the herd they spot a foal with a halter that's cutting deeply into her skin . They told Mandy's parents what they saw and they tried a couple times to get the halter off of the poor foal but they didn't succeed till they met a boy named Sean Malone . You'll have to read the rest of the story to see what happens to the weak little foal .
 Not the best Animal Ark Book December 12, 2003
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
I have read quite a few Animal Ark books,but this one was different. The text was a bit awkward and Mandy and James spoke and thought differently then they usually do. I liked it a little,but only beacause I love horses and riding,(I own my own pony and know quite a bit about horses). I also think that two children could NOT tame a wild pony by themselves. It might give children insane notions that they can tame a wild horse by themself. If you read a lot of Animal Ark books or know about horses,you'll see why I only gave this book two stars.

6/30/03 Have listened to a young relative reading the book allowed..she picked it for the illustration on the jacket.I have seen the Animal Ark(one which is re many animals(I purchased it in fact a year ago for a neice doing research on Pandas).This book has so many seldom used words,so many uses of words as literary language(e.g. the ponies churning the sand)...
