On the first Christmas after his wife's death, an old man rescues a wild mare that collapses in a storm. The mare gives birth to a foal, and the two horses provide the man with companionship. Picture book audiences will be unlikely to relate to this sentimental tale, though the illustrations are nicely detailed. (c) Copyright 2010.
