Illustrated by
Jane Chapman.
Published spring 1998. In a familiar story line, a mare reassures her curious foal that he will not miss her when he grows up. With his mother's guidance, the foal learns about wind, darkness, and the world outside his snug stable. Although the text conveys an anthropomorphic mother and child relationship, the textured illustrations portray a fairly realistic mare and foal.
