The Girl Who Loved Wild Horses

Summary

A Native American girl feels a deep bond with the horses of her people and, after a storm scatters a herd, she chooses to live among the wild horses on the open plains. Paul Goble illustrates the story with flat decorative scenes full of prairie flowers, birds, and animals rendered in clear color and fine outline inspired by Plains Indian art. The book celebrates the connection between people and the natural world and reads almost like a quiet legend of transformation.
