The horse arrives in the storm, when Merryn needs him most, following
the loss of her father. Sorrel is a dreamlike creature, seemingly
made from the woods and the sea. Perhaps she wished him
into existence.
He becomes her friend and confidant. Throughout the summer and
autumn, they ride and play, but as Christmas approaches, it will
require all of Merryn’s new-found strength to help her mum
and her sisters heal too.
A perfect gift for readers aged 9 and up; all the makings
of a modern classic.
Stunningly presented: a fully illustrated, beautiful
jacketed hardback with blue ink interior printing
Explores themes of grief, family and healing in an accessible
way for young readers.
For readers of Charlie Mackesy's The Boy, the
Mole, the Fox and the Horse, or Jackie Morris and Robert MacFarlane's The
