(3) 1-3 Horse Diaries series. Illustrated by Ruth Sanderson. Yatimah, an Arabian filly with a ninth-century Bedouin tribe, learns to be a good war mare; however, her owner hasn't forgiven her for the fact that his favorite horse died foaling her. This well-constructed tale, illustrated with textured black-and-white drawings, effectively incorporates cultural and historical details. An appendix provides more information about Arabian horses and Bedouins.
