On 10 June 2009 I visited the Pohick Regional Library in Burke, VA for the first time. While I was there I got a library card for the Fairfax County system.
I could not resist looking through the books for sale and I selected this one as one that I would like to read.
I remember reading this book when I was a young girl and I look forward to giving it another try to see if it is as goos as I remember.

I recently read this book and it isn't as complex as I remember it being. But it is a really good story about horses, history and the Virginia coastline. I hope it finds a good home.

WILD RELEASE NOTES:
This book is from my personal stash of books to release. I'll be leaving the D.C. area shortly after the 2011 BookCrossing Convention and anything that I don't have to move is all the better. I am putting this book on the book buffet and hoping it finds a good home.
Where will this book end up and what kind of journey will it have along the way?

Oh dear, I see I never journaled this one. Sorry about that. If my granddaughter has already read it, I will take it along on our road trip this weekend to let it travel on.......
