Books you Grew Up With (Saddle Club, Thoroughbred, etc)

Which series did you cherish?

I read them all! But lately I laughed when I came across the Saddle Club on discovery kids on comcast tv. I had no idea they made it into a series.

I also agree with Silver Snaffles...one of the greatest horsey books! I also enjoyed the Five Circles...what an amazing book taken from the horses point of view! Thats a book that everyone needs to read...even as an adult!
I also had all of the Saddle Club books...classics...

Black Beauty was my first, and will remain my favourite, but I also cherished a series about a girl called Jinny and her spirited arabian mare Shanti, written by Patricia Leitch:

I LOVED Thoroughbred! I don't know if any of you remember Pine Hollow? It was the teenage version of Saddle Club. The only problem I had was that I couldn't get my hands on the very last book! I'm still hanging!

It was Marguerite Henry and Walter Farley for me. King of the Wind was probably my favourite.

I always loved the Heartland series, and they made a t.v. series out of that too! :D I have read some Phantom Stallion also, but I only liked those books for their cover art. : P
