The Cloud Horse: Short Fiction for Kids Strawberry Shakespeare

Welcome to this collection of three unforgettable and uplifting short stories for children. Boys and girls of all ages who love horses and adventure will adore the title story, "The Cloud Horse," an exhilarating yarn about a kid who is whisked away on the back of a flying horse! Based on "The Boy Who Rode into the Sunset," a short story classic by C. J. Dennis, this version contains valuable additions by Strawberry Shakespeare, including a division into colorfully titled chapters and a section on the life and times of author C. J. Dennis, which render this magical fable more meaningful and enjoyable than ever.

We are also delighted to bring you "White Fire" and "The Appaloosa Colt," two extraordinary short stories by bestselling children's author Strawberry Shakespeare. Readers of all ages will be enchanted by her mystical and inspiring tales. For your added enjoyment, we have also included a humorous bonus selection from Strawberry Shakespeare's popular, horse-themed children's novel, "Saving Bluestone Belle."
