The Horse Dreamer (HB)
The horse arrives in the storm, when Merryn needs him most, following the loss of her father. Sorrel is a dreamlike creature, seemingly made from the woods and the sea. Throughout the summer and autumn, they ride and play, but as Christmas approaches, it will require all of Merryn's new-found strength to help her mum and her sisters heal too.
A stunning, hopeful and poignant middle-grade animal story, written and illustrated by debut author Holly Surplice.
The horse arrives in the storm, when Merryn needs him most, following the loss of her father. Sorrel is a dreamlike creature, seemingly made from the woods and the sea. Perhaps she wished him into existence.
He becomes her friend and confidant. Throughout the summer and autumn, they ride and play, but as Christmas approaches, it will require all of Merryn’s new-found strength to help her mum and her sisters heal too.
A perfect Christmas gift for readers aged 9 and up; all the makings of a modern classic. A beautiful jacketed hardback with blue ink interior printing.
Explores themes of grief, family and healing in an accessible way for young readers. Shades of Lauren St John and Marianne Dreams.
