(3) 4-6 Kallisto, thirteen, is a talented equestrian who'd do anything for her family's horses. When a Chinese army marches toward their mountain city, Kalli races to warn the others and protect the community's exotic Ferghana horses. The heroine's plucky determination and a crisply realized ancient Asia setting work well together in this historical girl-loves-horse story inspired by real events in Persia several thousand years ago.
