Molly the Pony: A True Story

(4) K-3 My Readers series. Adapted by Susan Bishay. Pony Molly, rescued after Hurricane Katrina, loses a leg after a dog attack; she is fitted with a prosthetic ("with a smiley face on the bottom") and becomes a visiting therapy animal. The true story of this resilient animal is told through simple text and awkward photographs. Young horse lovers will overlook the bland storytelling and focus on the inspiring pony.
