WILD THING--Book #1

"I have to have that horse. And I'll do whatever it takes to get her."

Twelve-year-old Winnie Willis loves horses just like her mother did. She's a teen-aged horse whisperer, gifted in gentling horses instead of breaking them. But in the two years since her mom died, Winnie, her sister, Lizzy, and Dad have moved five times. Winnie never cared much until now. But now she has a chance to buy the horse of her dreams--an Arabian known as Wild Thing. It will take all of her skills and love to gentle the abused horse and to begin to rebuild her own life.

Meet: *Catman Coolidge, a throw-back to the 60's. The Catman knows as much about cats as Winnie knows about horses. *Eddy Barker, who can talk a dog into just about anything. *Lizzy, who loves lizards and all things creepy crawly; & Hawk--who knows all kids of trivia about birds.

EAGER STAR--Book #2

As Winnie faces life at a new school, she keeps a journal, much like the one she kept when she and her mother had observed Mustangs and herd behavior in the wild: The horses at middle school divide into small herds, where each horse struggles to make a strong first impression. A social order exists, with high horses ignoring low stragglers. Mares turn on each other as soon as a male (like Grant!) enters the herd. And a new "horse" is outcast.

Winnie sets up her official business for gentling problem horses, but her first customer is a big problem--a human problem. Not only will she have to train Eager Star to win the barrel race, but she'll have to figure out a way to handle Grant, Eager Star's teenaged owner.
