With his mother missing and his father dead, twelve-year-old Flip's new home is a remote Dutch island. Menaced by the local bullies and followed everywhere by a mysterious girl, he wonders how he'll ever adapt to life on his uncle's farm.
But everything changes the day a sinking ship leaves a horse drowning in the waves. Risking his life to rescue it, Flip is told he may keep the horse -- but only if he can teach it how to work for its keep. From that moment on a friendship grows. But can a boy and a horse really save each other? And what other dark storm threaten their hard-won happiness?
Storm Horse is a thrilling, heartfelt tale of a boy, a horse, and their journey together towards a new life.
Editorial Reviews
Review
Praise for Storm Horse:
* "Set in 1966, the book’s island locale, plot, and characters are so well-defined that readers will be riveted to the narrative as it unfolds. A rare boy-and-his-horse story worthy of any collection." -- Booklist, starred review
