It's been one of those days for Natty! First of all, Penelope almost guesses Natty's magic secret. Then horrible Smudger Evans and his gang want her brother's new bike helmet - and they'll stop at nothing to get it. It's time for Magic Pony action - can Natty and Ned beat the bullies?
My love of reading started when i was young, and it gives me immense pleasure to provide books to Spread the Word Nevada, an organization that passes them on to children in the community. They are a terrific organization supporting an important cause. If your local I encourage you to check them out. For those living further a field, look in your own community, their may already be a similar program in place. And if not, you can always help start one.
Myself, I go out on the weekends and shop thrift store and bulk book lots to rescue books and donate them. Sometimes I'll find a book I remember reading when I was young and will read it again before passing it on.
I don't rate these books using my normal scale, instead I give most of them three stars. This isn't a Criticism of the book, simply my way of rating them as good for children.
