My Friend Flicka by Mary O' Hara

A sensitive young boy who lives on a ranch in Wyoming learns life lessons after being given a filly by his father.  Heartwarming, but not cheesy. 

My sister, who is visiting, says it isn't actually My Friend Flicka, but Her Friend Flicka as she was given it as a child and true enough the date on the inside front cover is Christmas 1978!  The cover says it is a classic and they aren't lying - it was first published in 1941 and is still available.

I took the pic on a trip to Hobbiton at Mata Mata, I though it was appropriate as they are both enduring classics.
