Description

  The horse arrives in the storm, when Merryn needs him most …  THE PERFECT GIFT FOR READERS AGED 9 AND UP  ‘Tender and poignant, with dynamic blue-and-white illustrations, it’s a gorgeous, hopeful story for 9+.’ THE GUARDIAN 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 Lost Words and The Lost Spells
