King of the Wind: The Story of the Godolphin Arabian by Marguerite Henry
5.0
I was a child the first time I read "King of the Wind" by Marguerite Henry, and the iconic characters stayed with me through the decades, long after I had forgotten their names and the details of the story.
I was a bit wary of rereading the book as an adult, afraid that revisiting this old favourite of mine with grownup eyes might ruin the beautiful memories of it I held, but I shouldn't have worried: the plot was as engrossing as I remembered, and the descriptions as vivid.
This is a book I will be rereading again and again with great enjoyment. I will never again let so many years pass without losing myself in the adventures of Agba and Sham!
