Vansa Oh my God,your post transported me back to my childhood!Jill and the perfect pony by Ruby Ferguson was one of my favourite books as a kid,I didn't know at all that it was a continuation!I must get hold of this.Sounds so lovely.Why were there so many horse books for girls back then?!Horse riding is a fairly niche activity,I would assume!I loved all of them, though I've probably set eyes on a horse barely twice in my life😂 2y
Vansa I would never have thought Jill had such a complicated backstory, she's such a competent horsewoman in Jill and the perfect pony! 2y
johncadams @Vansa As fans of pony stories we are so used to riders who are already experienced. I always felt that Jill was more accessible than some of the more capable riders we see in other books. I am so glad that my post sparked your response. I love reviewing and this is why! 2y
Vansa @johncadams very true! I really must get hold of this. 2y
