My youngest daughter and I checked this out of the library originally. We both loved it so much that we checked it out again and again. When I volunteered at the school, I tried to read it aloud to the class and couldn't get through it through the tears. I bought her, her own copy for Christmas last year even though she's 20 now and she says it's one of the best gifts she's ever gotten. Now I'm looking for a copy for me.
Beautiful prize winner
Rating: 4/5
This book won one of Canada's most prestigious literary awards. In 1983, it was given the Canada Council Children's Literature Prize... the first poetry book ever to be awarded it. <Ghost Horse> is based on true-life events, which occurred in 1874.
A good book to give to a child in whom you want to instill with a love of poetry.
