Description
Stories from a Cornish Stable presents the second book in the series all about an ex-racehorse and three rescued Dartmoor ponies that live in the Tamar Valley.
Having been introduced to ex-racehorse Baz and his three Dartmoor pony sisters in Blackberries Aren’t That Scary, this book sees them have an adventure on Bodmin Moor. In fast-paced rhyming verse, readers are whisked up to the moors following the hoof prints of Baz – learning about friendship and family along the way.
The book also features the story of The Beast of Bodmin Moor, and has a page dedicated to the Cornish names of the many animals who appear in the book.
As established in the first book in the series, Baz is terrified of absolutely everything. So it shouldn’t surprise readers to see that, upon hearing a gate close with a loud bang, he charges off to Bodmin Moor.
Readers will visit some of the moor’s most famous sites and meet a whole host of animals who live up there.
Working together, Baz’s three Dartmoor pony sisters and a cast of other characters are able to guide him safely home.
