So beautiful. I love all of the characters in this book. I want it to be longer!
I loved this book. I just finished it when I woke up in the middle of last night.
As I thought about describing the storyline, my description falls pretty flat. The story is mainly set in a First Nation reserve in Ontario. An emotionally abused little girl can draw absolutely magical, mystical images of horses that transport anyone who views the pictures into another space (see, I'm already not doing it justice since this most definitely is NOT sci-fi or about space travel). She befriends 3 other kids on the reserve who end up trying to "save" her from her home situation. And no, this story is not about emotional abuse. I give up trying to describe it.
What does the horse mean? What does it represent and how does it do it? Why and how does it have a different effect on different people? What spiritual power is at work? How can one interaction in one's life have an effect on the rest of their lives?
The book is magical, lyrical, haunting, thought-provoking. The author does not wrap everything up at the end and put a bow on it - and I loved that about it. He leaves us wondering and speculating.
It will stay with me for a long time.
