Book description
Chiquitita is a young mare taken from the wild herd to be tamed and
worked without force. The method demands amazing patience and gentleness
from Kirstie and Lisa's host, Wayne Raburn. But Wayne's ranch hand,
Walter, secretly uses harsher methods which soon ruins his boss's good
work. Kirstie exposes Walter, who loses his job. But now he wants
revenge - and he's planning to take it out on the horse... Born and
brought up in Harrogate, Yorkshire, Jenny Oldfield went on to study
English at Birmingham University, where she did research on the Bronte
Novels and on Children's Literature. She then worked as a teacher,
before deciding to concentrate on writing. She writes novels for both
children and adults and, when she can escape from her desk, likes to
spend time outdoors. She loves the countryside and enjoys walking,
gardening, playing tennis, riding and travelling with her two daughters,
Kate and Eve.
