Illustrated by Deb Hoeffner. 
How can one scrawny little colt save his entire herd of Morgan horses? This inspiring story is told in the voice of this little hero who will steal your heart. Written by a volunteer at the Equine Rescue League where the rescue took place and illustrated with drawings on each page by the award-winning artist Deb Hoeffner, the book is a tribute to the extraordinary spirit of
the horse and a salute to equine rescue organizations worldwide. In the words of Pat Rodgers, founder of
the Equine Rescue League, “How can we give up when they do not?”
“I absolutely LOVE how you illustrated this story. You’ve sensitively and gently captured the
terrible conditions of the horses in a way that evokes empathy but not horror. The illustrations
make this book appropriate for all ages…even 6 year olds who would hear it by a parent reading it
aloud. Your love for animals comes through in your art!”
