I loved this story! It's the true tale of Gibson White, Ben White, and Rosalind the horse, along with a bonus story (story within a story, chapter by chapter as Gib reads it) of Hambletonian, the great horse who was Rosalind's ancestor. It's been a long time since I read a Marguerite Henry book, but when I found this classic edition in mint condition at the used bookstore, I had to have it. Dust jacket and all for only $8. Now that's a bargain, especially when the story keeps me up at night before a work morning!
Here's the link to the Hambletonian Society page, but it does have spoilers!
