Description
*Australian Book Design Awards: Best Designed Children's Book Winner 2020* Nina lives with her father above the palace stables at the Royal Academy of Dancing Horses. She loves watching the famous white stallions as they parade for the crowds, but her favourite horse is a mare called Zelda – an old cab horse Nina often pats on her way home from school. When Nina’s world changes dramatically, she and her father have to flee from the city. Their journey over the mountains with Zelda and the stallions seems impossible, with danger at every turn. It will require all of Nina’s bravery, daring and faith in an extraordinary old horse. "A thrilling adventure story by one of Australia’s greatest children’s authors." Angela Crocombe, Readings "A picture book drama that has the sweep of a novel." Kirkus Reviews "This is a story of adventure, courage, friendship and horses ... a perfect gift book for children." Kids' Book Review Another classic from Alison Lester, the creator of many much-loved and award-winning picture books, including: Are We There Yet? I'm Green and I'm Grumpy! Who's that Knocking? Running with the Horses One Small Island Kissed by the Moon Our Island My Dog Bigsy Sophie Scott Goes South
