If I Had a Horse

40 pp. | Roaring Brook/Porter | January, 2018 | Trade ISBN 978-1-62672-908-7 $17.99
(3) K-3 A young girl fantasizes about life with a horse--taming him, exploring with him, befriending other horses, being fearless. Saturated illustrations in purple, blue, green, and orange capture girl and horse in flowing silhouette, conveying their distinctive movements, while background details emerge through tints in the wash. The girl's confident self-talk will hearten readers facing challenges or learning to dream big.
Reviewer: Anita L. Burkam
