PONIES!!!
I saw this at the library and thought: WooHoo!, here's a book some girl out there will like. I mean, horses... ponies... that's good stuff.
--> Not that boys don't like horses but this book seems a little biased in that all of the Pony Scouts are girls. { Yes, they call themselves the Pony Scouts. No laughing. }
The story -- and there is one in this book that is at the early 2nd Grade Reading level-- is about Meg meeting other friends at the Pony Farm. Jill's mom shows them around the barn but just as Meg forgot to pack her toothpaste because she was so excited, the girls forget to latch Sparkle's stall door. Sparkle being a spunky pony releases the rest and it's ponies every which way.
Sample text from one page:
Jill's mom showed the girls
how to catch the ponies.
"Walk up to them
slowly and calmly," she said.
Meg led Sparkle, Jill led Apples,
and Annie led Splash.
[The text is in a large font.]
THOUGHTS
This book is at the early 2nd Grade reading level. I think it will appeal to girls who like animals and mild adventure. I like that there's an actual story here with a beginning, middle, and end.
If there's a 'moral' to this story I suppose it's that you need to be careful and responsible.
Teachers should note that there is both Accelerated Reading and Lexile level information available. This book is also Common Core Aligned. ( )
