Billy and Blaze: A Boy and His Pony by C.W. Anderson

Billy and Blaze: A Boy and His Pony (Billy and Blaze)

by C.W. Anderson

The first book in the classic, beloved Billy and Blaze series, from renowned author C.W. Anderson.

Billy was a little boy who "loved horses more than anything else in the world." Imagine how happy he was when he got his very own pony for his birthday! From that day on, Billy was seldom seen without his new friend, Blaze.

Riding through fields and woods, Billy and Blaze learned to trust and understand one another--and to jump over fences and fallen trees with ease. They were a great team, but were they good enough to win the gleaming silver cup at the Mason Horse Show?

This is the first book in the classic Billy and Blaze series. Sensitive drawings and easy-to-read words capture the warmth and gentle understanding between a boy and his horse.

Billy and Blaze, and Blaze and the Forest Fire are two of our literature choices for Memoria Press First Grade included in the More StoryTime Treasures literature guide. My daughter loves these books. She doesn't have a horse craze like some, but these books she enjoys. I'm not sure if it is the story, the cover (ours is a color cover), or the pen and ink illustrations. All in all she's begged for more in the series to own.

This is a good boy and he tells a good example of character. With a live of nature and animals.
