Negative Positive
Title: Pathetic, pointless, unspeakably bad (I think)
Review: I noticed when reading "My Friend Flicka" that the critics compared it to this book, so I went ahead and bought it. Trying to figure out why it has not gone out of print is now one of my puzzlers.The horse dies in the first chapter. The characters are completely unlikeable. The book has no plot or storyline. I get tounge-tied every time I try to tell someone how stupid this book is. My vocabulary just isn't large enough.I guess I should read it again, to see if I get anything out of it. Some reviewers appear to think it's brilliant.If you want great literature about horses, read the "My Friend Flicka" trilogy instead. There you'll see genuinely great characters with something like a plot to tie them together.
