Assesment
I chose this book because it's about horses. The was good but it could have been better in my opinion. My favorite part of the book was when Paul went looking for the Phantom and her colt in the storm, then he found them in his grandpa's horse trailer and fell asleep with them. I really liked the country feeling of the book. I would recommend this book to people who likes horses and other animals or country people.
