About this book
A small Shetland pony called Star greets Minnie with a neigh and learns to search beneath her apron for a treat. In Madeline Leslie's children's story, the dark bay pony shares his pasture and stable with Nannie, a lamb who follows him closely. Minnie rides along the road between her family's house and farm, learns to mount by herself, and later takes Star on errands to the village.
These scenes of country life frame a series of horse anecdotes told by Minnie's father, uncles, and their visitors. One account describes a horse and a Newfoundland dog working together in Dublin; another follows a Glasgow cart horse that finds its way to a familiar farrier. Stories of memory, affection, and clever behavior give the book its shape.
