The first book in the classic, beloved Billy and Blaze series, from renowned author C.W. Anderson. Billy was a little boy who “loved horses more than anything else in the world.” Imagine how happy he was when he got his very own pony for his birthday! From that day on, Billy was seldom seen without his new friend, Blaze. Riding through fields and woods, Billy and Blaze learned to trust and understand one another—and to jump over fences and fallen trees with ease. They were a great team, but were they good enough to win the gleaming silver cup at the Mason Horse Show? This is the first book in the classic Billy and Blaze series. Sensitive drawings and easy-to-read words capture the warmth and gentle understanding between a boy and his horse.

A Penguin Classic Written at a time of profound anxiety caused by the illness of his mother, Nobel Prize winner John Steinbeck draws on his memories of childhood in these stories about a boy who embodies both the rebellious spirit and the contradictory desire for acceptance of early adolescence. Unlike most coming-of-age stories, the cycle does not end with a hero “matured” by circumstances. As John Seelye writes in his introduction, reversing common interpretations, The Red Pony is imbued with a sense of loss. Jody’s encounters with birth and death express a common theme in Steinbeck’s fiction: They are parts of the ongoing process of life, “resolving” nothing. The Red Pony was central not only to Steinbeck’s emergence as a major American novelist but to the shaping of a distinctly mid twentieth-century genre, opening up a new range of possibilities about the fictional presence of a child’s world. This edition contains an introduction by John Seelye. For more than seventy years, Penguin has been the leading publisher of classic literature in the English-speaking world. With more than 1,700 titles, Penguin Classics represents a global bookshelf of the best works throughout history and across genres and disciplines. Readers trust the series to provide authoritative texts enhanced by introductions and notes by distinguished scholars and contemporary authors, as well as up-to-date translations by award-winning translators.

This children's book is the story of the unconditional love between a mare and her newborn foal, Pony Boy. How she lovingly guides him through the life lessons every child needs to learn. The dangers in life, the rules of being part of a group, accepting changes and going with the flow of one's life. How scary changes are at first, and by not resisting the changes how they become the new normal in life. Pony Boy and his new best friend, Little One, take us through their lives as seen through the eyes of a child. Little One's mom is injured when she is born and has to go to the hospital. Pony Boy adopts her. So, not only is he a child, himself, but he becomes Little One's teacher. So the adventure of learning and discovering about life begins for the two of them. The two of them are lovingly overseen by his mom and the other mares of the herd. "It is our job," said Sunshine, "To instill in each foal, a love so deep, that no matter what they have to face in life, they will survive and be okay. That is a mother's job, to teach their child to love themselves to such an extent that they can handle anything. Life is full of challenges and it is our job to make those challenges easier for our children."
