(4) 1-3 Hoofbeats series. Nine-year-old Lara yearns to work with horses, but Irish girls in fourteenth-century Norman-controlled Ireland are not allowed to. These four books follow Lara's adventures with the filly Dannsair and her determination that Dannsair doesn't end up a war horse. Poor character development won't deter die-hard fans of horse stories. Review covers these Hoofbeats titles: Lara and the Gray Mare, Lara and the Moon-colored Filly, Lara and the Silent Place, and Lara at Athenry Castle.
