Marguerite Henry Treasury of Horses (Boxed Set): Misty of Chincoteague, Justin Morgan Had a Horse, King of the Wind Paperback – August 28, 2007

These were all my favorite stories growing up. Gave them to my granddaughters as a gift and know they wil love them too!

I gave the series to my 7-year-old great nephew for Christmas this year and he was super excited to read a book that included stories about horses. I read them when I was about his age and horse crazy (like him). He's an avid reader already and I believe he'll enjoy the books just as much as I did nearly 50 years ago. They're timeless.

When I was in elementary school in rural NH (2 classrooms in the building as I started & 4 as I departed at 6th grade), my Great-Aunt was the local librarian. For 1 hour a week, she read to each grade. This book still rings in my memory very high from my 4th grade experience. I know it must have taken her a few weeks to read it to us, but the reading time I do not remember. What I strongly remember is that after she finished reading to us, the whole class jumped up & wanted to sign the book out. This did not happen often. Boys & girls; all of us wanted to sign the book out. A bit ashamed, I have to admit that she saw in me the book reader/scholar that I was to become (I went on to college a few times-few people in my town did that), and I became the first 4th grader to get to sign the book out. I have loved horses ever since & the Morgan breed is special and "local" to me now. A great historical read.

Also bought this set for my 8 year old grand daughter that loves to read and loves horses. She cant get enough of Marguerite Henry's books. They keep you so involved and are so easy to read. Ms Henrys writing flows so easily. I highly recommend all her books for any young or old child that is interested in horses

I know I ordered used but box was torn

These are some of the most beloved horse stories around. The human characters are interesting, the horses always fascinating. The illustrations are wonderful, too. These are adventures you'll want to pass on to your children and grandchildren. No childhood is complete without these books.

I read all the Marguerite Henry books during my 6th grade year in school because I was horse-crazy in those days (what young girl isn't???). My 2nd granddaughter is just as crazy about horses as I was, maybe even more so and I got the whole set for her next birthday, even though she's a little young for them at 8 yrs, she's an advanced reader and if it's about horses she'll work hard to improve her skills for them!!!

These were a gift for my 7 year old niece,who is an avid reader. Misty was a favorite of mine when I was young & I was happy to share these stories with her. The boxed set made a perfect gift. She was thrilled.

Wonderful classic stories for girls who love horses my daughter doesn’t read much, but she dug right into these books and has loved every bit not too scary or violent either

King of the Wind was my favourite book for a solid decade after I read it when I was nine. Bought this for a young friend who likes reading.

Great books!

Fantastic!
