I loved this book as a kid, but it's darker than I remembered. I reread it w/my kids and we were all on the edge of our seats. The author's ability to give the reader empathy for horses is beautiful. We found ourselves reflecting on how people treat animals or those with less power is a true reflection of who they are as a person.

“If we see cruelty or wrong that we have the power to stop, & do nothing, we make ourselves sharers in the guilt.”

Lcsmcat Who‘s the illustrator of your edition? Because those look a lot like the illustrations in my (old) copy of Mary Poppins! 2w
AvidReader25 @Lcsmcat I just checked, it‘s from my childhood edition that I read over and over again. The illustrator is Fritz Eichenberg. 1w
Lcsmcat @AvidReader25 I guess it was just the era then. Mary Shepard illustrated my Mary Poppins. I can‘t paste an example, but here‘s one https://images.theconversation.com/files/315826/original/file-20200217-11040-d1r... 1w
