Description:

Horses, adventure, and the old West—mixed with a solid message for today's tweens—make this a must-read for tweens. Twelve-year-old Andrea "Andi" Carter attracts trouble the way her palomino horse, Taffy, attracts flies on a hot summer day. Andi's entire family and the staff at the Circle C Ranch treat her like such a pesky kid that she sometimes wonders if they would all be better off without her. After a particularly scary incident where Andi gets in trouble once again, she saddles up Taffy and runs away from home. But her escape quickly leads to frightening encounters with a horse thief and a vicious young lady. All of which makes Andi realize that there really is no place like home.

Review By: Gail Welborn, Montgomery's Journey - May 1, 2006

This delightful story from debut author, Susan Marlow, demands sequels, because of her memorable characters and dynamic story line, reminiscent of Tom Sawyer tales. Although intended for youth, I couldn't put the book down until I finished it. Definitely add this one to your shopping list for young and old alike.
