Rain and the Reading Horse

<p><strong>Attention all horse lovers! Here's a gentle gorgeously illustrated meditation on the healing power of our relationship with animals and overcoming our fears for readers of <em>I Talk Like a River </em>and <em>Rescue & Jessica.</em></strong></p><p>When a shy young girl attends a school program to read to a horse called Snow she doesn't know what to expect--other than to be nervous about reading aloud. Her words often get stuck but Snow's calm and reassuring company slowly builds her confidence. <em>Rain and the Reading Horse</em> is a beautiful celebration of a girl's relationship with a horse and the slow but persistent ways we can confront our fears.</p>
