She's penned a wonderful, suspenseful story that will certainly appeal to young readers. In the third of her Sweetbriar series, "Finding Violet," readers will meet a young equestrian named Violet, who accidentally discovers she's adopted. Understandably, this knowledge upends her life. Violet loves her adoptive parents but she realizes several stressful events are affecting their lives and she doesn't want to add to the family's distress. But hiding her problem from her parents is affecting her health because Violet barely eats and her parents do not know the reason why. As in any fantastic book, the main character changes as the story develops. I know readers and horse-lovers and others will be enchanted and enlightened by this book. Does Violet succeed in competitions? Any horse lover will be completely enthralled from cover to cover. It has my highest recommendation.Amazon Reviewer. This book tackles several very sensitive issues (especially to young women and their families) with skill, delicacy and expertise that gives me a new-found respect for Ms. Marsh. I really enjoyed the book! A few quick thoughts: This is a story set around Sweetbriars and friends Violet, Tabby and Cate... Violet discovered a family secret, but suffered in silence because she did not know who to turn to. She cannot find an appropriate time to talk about her discovery with her parents, Tabby agrees to try to help Violet find the truth... Violet soon learns the value of true friendship and family love."

A Tale of Sweetbriars. A 'feel good', coming of age series, for horse-mad girls, teens, and those 'young at heart'. Called a 'Must Read' by Horse & Hound and 'The stuff of Horse Lover's Dreams' by Reader's Favorite. Included several times in the Pony Magazine's best horse book recommendations.Welcome to the yard! Come and meet the girls... Cate, Tabby and Violet. Cate is uprooted from life as she has known it. Along with her family and her palomino show pony Odette, she moves to a charming farm deep in the English countryside. Cate is torn. Upon moving to horse heaven, she had to leave behind her best friend Beth and her beloved horse-riding instructor Bridget. On the other hand, she has fallen in love with Sweetbriars, the farm her family has bought to make their dreams come true. Setting up an equestrian centre at Sweetbriars is fun to Cate, but settling into a new school and having a stern Pony Club riding instructor that teaches dressage is less so. At school, Cate makes friends with Violet who is confident and wacky, and through Pony Club she gets to know Tabby who is sweet and popular but hides a family secret. When the eccentric neighbour Sophia becomes a regular 'drop-in' to the farm, Cate begins to learn about acceptance and what friendships really mean. The girls' lives will be intertwined in ways they could never have imagined thanks to their shared passion for horses and Cate's determination to make Sweetbriars a success. Will Cate ever settle into living in the countryside? Could you be our next cover star? Meet our latest cover star Tyler and learn more at sweetbriarsfarm.com Horse & Hound.

"It's been some time since I read a horsey book, or indeed was around horses and this book as the biggest breath of fresh air I could ever have received! It is the story of Tabby. If you look at the blurb above it's about her family and how things are and have unravelled but I read this as I would have back when I was a teen obsessed with horses, as a book about a yard, a group of friends that are there for each other and the everyday goings-on around some fantabulous horses. And oh were the horses fantabulous! I easily settled into the, um, settings, breathing in the horsey sights and smells of not only the yard but of pony club meets and shows. I experienced every single second of this book, in particular, Tabby setting out to save her favourite horse from destruction. The family issues were, of course, important, but I relished this book purely for the vividness, the beauty and the excitement and I look forward to buying it for someone for a gift." Award-winning Children's Author Sherry Ellis. "Tabby's Big Year, is a story about overcoming challenges-both internal and external. Young Tabby lives with her single workaholic mom at a horse farm. Since her father left, the mom has had to work long hours, leaving Tabby alone most of the time. Tabby must come to terms with this and learn how to express her feelings in a constructive way. Other subplots include Tabby learning to manage a spunky young horse named Bliss and rescuing another horse named Nancy." Children's Author Deanie Humphreys-Dunne. "In this second book in the Sweetbriar's series, readers meet Tabby, a young lady with many conflicts in her life. She loves horses and riding, but she is dealing with several family issues. For example, she resents her mom and her older sister, Ava. But eventually, Tabby makes a plan to resolve her internal strife. This is one thing I liked about the story. I think readers will be pleased to see how Tabby has gained wisdom. The story is engaging. Readers will want to see what happens next. What does Tabby do to save one of her favorite horses? Does she reach some of her equestrian goals? Horse- lovers, in particular, will love this story and cheer for Tabby' s success. I highly recommend it."

So what was Cinderella’s prince really like? Was Red Riding Hood rescued by a woodsman, or not? Was Jack’s beanstalk genetically modified? Were Hansel and Gretel so motivated to find the gingerbread house because of that Paleo diet? And who styled Rapunzel’s hair? These updated versions of popular folk and fairy tales answer all these burning questions and more, all the while giving the parents – frequently compelled to read stories to their children over and over – some amusement as well.

With the number of books now on the market, it's becoming incredibly hard to find something that's a little bit different. However, these books are just that, unique and very different to any book I've seen. They are absolutely ideal for the beginner who is just starting out and wants something easy but decorative.Yes, you may have to like Mandalas, but I think these books would also appeal to those not so keen. With clear pictures throughout, the patterns start off relatively easy and can be coloured in a short amount of time, but progress through the book and they become harder and more intricate. Depending on your mood, pick a floral picture, or simple hearts, there is ample choice among the 3 books in the Color My Moods series.What makes these books even more interesting is the day time illustration on a white background and a night time on a black background. I love this. It's so different, and of course, with such a fantastic variety and each book following a theme, it's sure to meet everyone's liking.It's certainly a good purchase for myself, family and friends.-Tracy Beattie
