Customer Reviews

Misty's Twilight is WONDERUL

I admittedly do not know how much is truth and how much is fictionalized BUT this book is so wonderful and the humans love and care for their horses so much it is beautiful! THIS is NOT just a kids book but a book for horse lovers of aLL ages!

Hello? this is a true story!

To the people that think this is so fake, THIS IS A TRUE STORY!!!!!!!!! All of the things Misty's Twilight did in the book are true!

Well, I on the other hand thought it was good

Even though some of you thought this book was a disapointment, I just wanted to let all who are thinking of reading it, it is wonderful! I personally thought it was better than Misty, Stormy, and Sea Star's books, even though I love them dearly. I have re-read it at least twice. I also thought that they should tell more about Twilight's dressage career, and they should've given Twilight a while to actually develop into a jumper. Also, I thought that Sandy should do something that her kids wanted to do for their birthdays. Anyway, despite those flaws, I loved the book, and it gets five stars.

Great Book

I have just read the book Misty's Twilight. It is the best book I have ever read. It has wonderful illustrations, and it makes you feel all the confusion and excitement of pony penning day. The story also pulls you in to the frustration and excitement of finding Twilight's true talent. I highly recommend this book to everyone, not just horse lovers like me.

An updated version of "Misty of Chincoteague"!

Do you love the classic "Misty of Chincoteague"? Then you'll absolutley die for Twilight! Twilight is the great-great granddaughter of the famous Misty. Twilight is a Chincoteague Pony/Throughbred cross with a heart of gold. She can jump, she can cut (as in cattle cutting), she can even perform in the Dressage ring at international levels! What happens to the little super-star? Read this book ;0)
