Abby Lovitt doesn't realize how unprepared she is when she
takes her beloved horse, True Blue, to a clinic led by the
most famous equestrian anyone knows. The biggest surprise,
though, is that Sophia, the girl who never makes a mistake,
suddenly makes so many that she stops riding. Who will ride
her horse? Abby's dad seems to think it will be Abby. Pie in
the Sky is the most expensive horse Abby has ever ridden.
But he is proud and irritable, and he takes Abby's attention
away from the continuing mystery that is True
Blue.
And then there's high school—Abby finds new
friends, but also new challenges, and a larger world that
sometimes seems strange and intimidating. She begins to
wonder if there is another way to look at horses, people,
and life itself.
Accompanied by the beautiful imagery
of 1960s Northern California, Abby's charming mix of
innocence and wisdom guide us through Pulitzer Prize winner
Jane Smiley's latest middle-grade horse novel.
