A middle school teacher. An award-winning author. A world-famous pony.
When seventh grade teacher Susan Friedland rereads her favorite childhood book, Misty of Chincoteague, curiosity sets in. How did Misty, a pinto pony, turn into a celebrity with a best-selling book series and movie? Who was Marguerite Henry, the author of Misty? Will Susan be able to find Marguerite's fans and friends to uncover the hidden backstory before it's too late?
Travel with Susan from horse farms to libraries and historical archives as she searches for clues. Follow in her footsteps from the Northwoods of Wisconsin to Chicagoland where Marguerite and Misty lived in the 1950s. Splash along in a kayak off Chincoteague Island, Virginia, during the wild pony swim Misty made famous.
Gallop into the magic of Marguerite and Misty and be inspired to chase your curiosity, wherever it takes you.
