Dictionary of Latin American Spanish Phrases and Expressions
Huzzah for pre-teen quest narratives!
Okay, really, the reason I've hung on to this for all these years? The horses. I never really grew out of the horse phase most girls go through, and the descriptions of horse behavior and general movement are so right on in this book. Other than that, the language reads a little stilted, as if it was translated from something else, and the narrative has a tendency to go off on explanations that are very much arrows to This Is An Educational Book for Children. It's no fun when it's that obvious, really.
So yes, it's a good narrative of going from being a puss to being a hero, and I really do like all of the description of working with horses and how to work with wild horses, but I think I'll stick with Black Beauty for horse fixes in the future.
