The Adventures of Pony Boy, Book One: The Early Days

This children’s book is the story of the unconditional love between a mare and her newborn foal, Pony Boy. How she lovingly guides him through the life lessons every child needs to learn. The dangers in life, the rules of being part of a group, accepting changes and going with the flow of one’s life. How scary changes are at first, and by not resisting the changes how they become the new normal in life. Whether you're, a one year old or sixty years old, changes because of disease, injury, or just moving can be quite overwhelming. Also, how he had to learn to deal with being bullied and with being different from everyone else in the herd.
Pony Boy and his new best friend, Little One, take us through their lives as seen through the eyes of a child. Little One’s mom is injured when she is born and has to go to the hospital. Pony Boy adopts her. So, not only is he a child, himself, but he becomes Little One’s teacher. So the adventure of learning and discovering about life begins for the two of them. The two of them are lovingly overseen by his mom and the other mares of the herd.
“It is our job”, said Sunshine, “To instill in each foal, a love so deep, that no matter what they have to face in life, they will survive and be okay. That is a mother’s job, to teach their child to love themselves to such an extent that they can handle anything. Life is full of challenges and it is our job to make those challenges easier for our children.”
