  <default_description>Long ago, a lone little burro roamed the high cliffs of the Grand Canyon and touched the hearts of all  who knew him: a grizzled old miner, a big-game hunter, even President Teddy Roosevelt. Named Brighty by the  prospector who befriended him, he remained a free spirit at heart. But when a ruthless claim-jumper  murdered the prospector, loyal Brighty risked everything to bring the killer to justice. 

Brighty's adventures have delighted generations of readers, and he has become the symbol of a joyous way of life.  Some people say that you can even see his spirit roving the canyon on moonlit nights-forever wild, forever free.

    <body><![CDATA[Have to check it out again before reading it to Colin.  I hope there are not as many deaths and maulings as there were in My Friend Flicka.  Doing my homework this time.  <br/><br/>Update - forgot about the old prospector getting murdered in the second chapter.  We'll wait to read this on to Colin...<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/30172731">more...</a>]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I read this book a million years ago in elementary school, and then picked it up again at the used book store and read it again.  It's a fun little story that makes me want to explore more of the canyon.  ]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[When we lived in Arizona, we had the chance to visit the Grand Canyon a few times.  This story about a little donkey who lives in the Grand Canyon is one of my favorites.  Great little mystery for kids and you can't help but fall in love with Brighty as he has his adventures.]]></body>

    <body><![CDATA[I admit it. I loved horse stories as a teenager. And especially Marguerite Henry's stories. This book is responsible for my lifelong yearning to ride a burro down into the bowels of the Grand Canyon. I'm getting to the age where it's going to be difficult to fulfill that dream!]]></body>
