(3) 1-3 Horse Diaries series. Illustrated by Astrid Sheckels. Rose, a Tennessee Walking horse, lives on a Southern plantation until the Civil War begins and she accompanies her master into battle. When her owner is killed, Rose and a young runaway slave start a life free from bondage. The horse's first-person narration is engaging, and the American history lesson is successfully woven through. Information about the breed and the Civil War is appended.
