Our First Pony

by Marguerite Henry

illustrated by Rich Rudish

This book tells the story of Joseph and Justin who are  twins, but they sure aren't much alike. Not only do they look different, they live in very different worlds. Joseph loves the outdoors, and all the animals, Justin, on the other hand, would rather be indoors, playing his piccolo or reading a book. But they share a love for  Midge, a pinto Shetland pony. They give her all the love and attention any pony could ever ask for. And she ends up giving them more than they ever could have imagined -- a horse family of their own!

With characteristic charm and simplicity, Marguerite Henry weaves a true-to-life tale about the joys and difficulties of owning and raising horses that will appeal to any child curious about horses.
