About the Books
Across these eight stories, Pippa's Pony Tales follows Tilly Redbrow, a horse-loving girl living with her adoptive family, as she grows into a confident, compassionate young rider at Silver Shoe Farm Stables. The set opens with Magic Spirit the Dream Horse, where Tilly helps rescue a terrified grey pony from the roadside and forms the bond that changes her life. From there, the adventures widen: Red Admiral the Racehorse brings a young racehorse recovering from injury, Rosie the Perfect Pony introduces a pony-mad new friendship, and Samson the Stallion tests Tilly's calm approach against a horse others fear. Lucky Chance the New Foal celebrates a newborn filly's arrival, Solo the Super Star raises the stakes with competition, Pride and Joy the Event Horse explores the world of top-level eventing that Pippa Funnell knows firsthand, and Neptune the Heroic Horse closes the set with a story of courage and loyalty. Threaded through every book are Pippa Funnell's own tips on horse care and welfare, along with a handy glossary and black-and-white illustrations on nearly every spread. The stories are printed in a dyslexia-friendly font, making them accessible for a wide range of readers. Set against the warm, community-centered backdrop of Silver Shoe Farm, the collection rewards readers with recurring characters, gentle humor, and satisfying, feel-good endings. It's an ideal fit for horse-obsessed kids who want episodic chapter books that are easy to dip in and out of, yet rich enough to inspire genuine love and knowledge of horses.
