My Chincoteague Pony by Susan Jeffers

I read this book to my kids tonight.  I always choke up when I read it.  Always!  There is something so moving about a girl’s need to have a horse and the need of the crowd to make sure she has it.  Ahh!  I never get tired of reading it especially the personal connection to Marguerite Henry.

I was one of those girls who needed a horse.

But I never got one.
