Description
A small pony, a crumbling farm, and a heart full of hope and courage - a page-turning modern day classic for ages 6-9
Warmheart loves to gallop and dreams of becoming a racehorse when he grows up. But when a real racing yard opens next to his crumbling farm, the short-legged cob believes he will never be fast enough to compete against the lightning speed thoroughbreds.
But Warmheart has even bigger problems to face. One-by-one his friends are being sold to keep the struggling farm afloat. He might be next.
Warmheart has but one chance to ensure he and his friends can stay together: he must learn to beat the odds, believe in his dreams, and find the courage in his heart to win the grand prize at the annual village race.
Can one small pony's big heart be enough to compete against the fastest horses in the land... and win?
"A must read for any child who has ever doubted in their ability to succeed."

FROM THE PUBLISHER:
Q1. What kind of story is The Galloping Pony?
A gentle, six-chapter pony adventure that feels like a warm hug and a cheer-on-the-sidelines all at once. It follows a scruffy farm foal, Warmheart, who dares to race dazzling thoroughbreds to save his beloved Pennydale Farm.
Q2. Who is the ideal reader?
Horse-crazy kids aged 6-9 (and the grown-ups who read with them) will enjoy the bite-sized chapters they can conquer alone, and adore as cosy read-alouds before bed.
Q3. What themes run through the tale?
• Perseverance -- Warmheart trains "every day" despite setbacks
• Friendship -- his bond with Bob the sheepdog never wavers
• Determination -- most importantly, it demonstrates that heart and spirit can be more important than physical appearance or origin when overcoming challenges
Q4. Will kids learn anything?
Absolutely. Besides a sprinkling of pony vocabulary, readers soak up lessons in resilience, empathy, and believing big even when you feel small
Q5. Is it part of a series?
Yes. The Galloping Pony opens the Magical Adventures & Pony Tales collection, which includes titles like The Painted Pony, The Runaway Pony, and The Desert Pony that can all be read as stand alone tales.
Q6. How long is it?
A swift, six-chapter romp -- about a 45-minute read-aloud or a couple of quiet evenings for confident young readers.
Q7. Why will kids (and parents) love it?
Children will root for the mismatched-eyed under-pony who proves speed isn't everything; parents will treasure the wholesome humour, clean language, and uplifting finale that leaves hearts lighter and imaginations galloping free!
