Sandra (readingontheporch) | 269 comments I've combined all but Racing Holiday and Riding Vacation as those seem to be two different books. Please confirm.

Laura (glomdi) | 47 comments I've read the book and from the description they're definitely the same, but I looked it up on Amazon and the cover for Riding Holiday says it's by Susannah Leigh, so maybe that's supposed to be a different book and someone got the description/author wrong?

Sandra (readingontheporch) | 269 comments Even the Worldcat description is very similar, so it could possibly be the same book. Very intriguing. I'm going to leave this to a more experienced librarian.

But WorldCat has the same cover, with what is clearly a correction/change to the author name. And the two covers are almost identical except for title/color. More intriguing, the 2009 Riding Holiday has a notation on WorldCat that it was originally published in 2000 -- and look what happens when you look at other editions on WorldCat: http://www.worldcat.org/title/riding-...

That's weird. I read the one with the cover of Racing Vacation at the bottom of that page. And I'm confused about the titles, lol.

Perhaps one title is meant for British audiences, and the other is for American audiences? My though is that in America, we say "vacation" but in the UK perhaps they say "holiday"? Just thinking out loud :S
