Books, Books, and more Books...

The Horsemasters
The Horsemasters is a total "horsemen-flick" it is a story set in England about a group of young adults who are pursuing their assistant riding instructors certificate. To do this, they have to go through a sort of "horsemen's boot-camp". They are responsible for caring for a single horse the whole six-weeks they are there and do a series of monotonous chores each day.
A very interesting book(especially for the horseman/woman)!



Brady


This is a historical fiction book on the underground railroad.


This is a good children's book, that has a little suspense and a little history.


The book starts out with a young boy named Brady, who has trouble keeping secrets. When Brady finds out important information about the "underground" it's even harder to hold his tongue! Will Brady's father trust him to help in a critical situation?





The Inheritance
This is a lovely story. It was the first novel written by Louisa May Alcott when she was only seventeen years old. The scene is set in England at around the 1800s. This book is about Edith, a young french girl who is a well-loved companion to a young lady and her wealthy family. When the unexpected happens, because of her humble and sweet spirit, Edith tries to hide the truth. ~I'll let you find out the rest! It is a must read!









Young PioneersThis story takes place in the west, where to newly-weds from the east start a homestead. This book is very much like the "Little House" books by the author's mother, Laura Ingalls Wilder; it is filled with many situations where the main characters go through the hardships of the wild west. Read it!




~I hope you enjoy these books!!~
