Beautifully written, Keepsake demonstrates real passion and offers an adventure with much heart and courage. This is a classic 'horse story' with many contemporary elements and an inter-generational view. The importance of friendship and family loom large. The frustration and desperation of both Johnny and Ella to save the horse are tempered by Ellas' granny, who takes a more practical view while supporting the children in their just cause, while many others simply give up. The relationships and interactions between the characters ring true. A carefully crafted, deliberate plot line never loses its' rhythm and carries the reader on a fast-paced journey with exactly the right amount of drama and tension leading to an exciting, bold conclusion. Keepsake offers much, and it does not disappoint! A wonderful wonderful read for everyone.
