Books with title The Sand Horse

It's the early half of the 19th century in coastal Nova Scotia, and almost-ten-year-old Ellie is adjusting to the recent death of her mother. But just when she finally begins to feel happy again, Ellie and her father move to remote Sable Island, a tiny, windblown crescent of grass and sand in the Atlantic. While her father works, Ellie explores the island, feeling alone and furious with her pa for making them leave their beloved home. Even meeting a spirited island girl named Sarah does little to dispel her anger and grief. Then one afternoon, Ellie encounters a wild stallion grazing on the dunes, and slowly forges a secret connection with the beautiful horse she names Orchid. But Ellie soon learns that Orchid and his family are threatened, and it may be up to her to save them. Based on historical fact, this early chapter book is a touching exploration of loss and loneliness and the redemptive power of love and friendship.

One windy summer day on the beach at St. Ives, an artist makes a sand sculpture of a horse. It takes an entire day, and all the people walking by stop to admire the magnificent creature. But when everyone goes home at the end of the day, the sand horse can hear the white horses of the surf calling to him: "Come with us to Sennen, Land's End, and Longships Light!" and he longs to join them. This poetic and haunting tale is memorably illustrated by Greenaway Medal Winner Michael Foreman.
