Download or read book Starlight s Courage written by Janet Muirhead Hill and published by Raven Publishing. This book was released on 2002-12 with total page 180 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Starlights Courage is second in an award-winning series about the mishaps and adventures that form a bond of love between two spirited creatures: a girl and a horse. Miranda Stevens adventures with Starlight, an injured two year old stallion, have only begun in Miranda and Starlight. In this exciting sequel, both the girl and the horse are called upon to exhibit loyalty, courage and endurance. Miranda and her friends, Christopher and Laurie, ride Chriss horse, Queen in fierce competition against their classmates, unaware that a mad man is out for revenge. There is a feature film currently in development based upon the first two books in this series. It is difficult to find good young adult and middle-grade books with a horse theme. These are the first books in a series for middle grade girls (and boys) featuring Miranda Stevens and a horse named Starlight. These books with modern themes are well written with a fast pace and should be a hot selling series to the target audience. We rated them five hearts.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Sharon M. Draper presents “storytelling at its finest” (School Library Journal, starred review) in this New York Times bestselling Depression-era novel about a young girl who must learn to be brave in the face of violent prejudice when the Ku Klux Klan reappears in her segregated southern town. Stella lives in the segregated South—in Bumblebee, North Carolina, to be exact about it. Some stores she can go into. Some stores she can’t. Some folks are right pleasant. Others are a lot less so. To Stella, it sort of evens out, and heck, the Klan hasn’t bothered them for years. But one late night, later than she should ever be up, much less wandering around outside, Stella and her little brother see something they’re never supposed to see, something that is the first flicker of change to come, unwelcome change by any stretch of the imagination. As Stella’s community—her world—is upended, she decides to fight fire with fire. And she learns that ashes don’t necessarily signify an end.

Download or read book Starlight written by Richard Wagamese and published by McClelland & Stewart. This book was released on 2019-05-21 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER From the beloved, bestselling author of Indian Horse and Medicine Walk, Richard Wagamese's final novel is a rapturous and profoundly moving story of love, compassion, mercy, and the consolations to be found in the natural world. Frank Starlight has long settled into a quiet life working his remote farm, occasionally venturing into the unbroken country around his property to photograph the wild animals who thrive there. His contemplative existence comes to an abrupt end with the arrival of Emmy, a woman on the run who has committed a desperate act so she and her child can escape a life of abuse. Frank takes in Emmy and her daughter to help them get back on their feet, and, gradually, this accidental family grows into a real one. But Emmy's violent ex-boyfriend isn't content to just let her go. He wants revenge and is determined to hunt her down. An instant national bestseller, Starlight was unfinished at the time of Richard Wagamese's death, yet every page radiates with his masterful storytelling, intense humanism, and insights that are as hard-earned as they are beautiful. With astonishing scenes set in the rugged backcountry of the B.C. Interior, and characters whose scars cut deep even as their journey toward healing and forgiveness lifts us, Starlight is a magnificent last gift to readers from a writer who believed in the power of stories to save us.
