A simple, sweet, and safely sad story about a boy who loves horses but, because of his family's extreme poverty, must leave school and his trips to the horse paddocks to work in the mines. Nothing earth-shattering here, but nothing too sappy or poorly-written, either. ( ) In the early years of the last century, a wild horse and a small boy are forced to work underground in the Cape Breton coal mines. Willie should have been in school; Gem should have been galloping free over the sand dunes of remote Sable Island. In the dark scary world of the coal mine, as the two worked at their dangerous jobs, they developed a special bond. Then there is an explosion. Both Willie and Gem are heroes. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña

If Willie could have his dream, he would go to Sable Island and ride free over the sand dunes on the back of a wild horse. Instead, 11-year-old Willie must work in the coal mines of Cape Breton, hardly ever seeing the light of day. But with the help of Gem, the gentle pit pony, he discovers that things aren't always as bad as they seem. And a surprising event reveals that miracles can happen, even in a coal mine.
