This chapter book tells story of heroic efforts taken to save an orphaned colt on Assateague Island who went on to become a famous Chincoteague Pony herd sire.
Visitors to the Chincoteague Wildlife Refuge often stopped to admire the majestic and powerful Chincoteague Pony stallion known as Miracle Man (1995–2013). But this island favorite wasn’t always a dominant herd sire. Here’s the story of the orphaned foal found near death on Assateague Island and Cynthia, the little girl whose faith and dedication helps him survive after her father rescues him from Black Duck Marsh.
Cynthia's determination to save the tiny pinto colt begins the moment he is brought to their island farm. She spends every day in the barn, giving him his medicines, bathing his injuries, and wrapping his leg. She takes him on long walks along the bay and ruffles his spiky mane, and each time there is a setback Cynthia aches for the foal. But, no matter what they do, the colt’s leg will not heal.
Finally, the vet suggests they throw away all the medicine and let nature take its course. Cynthia is afraid. How will the little colt survive?
This chapter book for ages 7 to 10 shares a heartwarming tale for pony lovers of all ages.
