Rather than dwelling on why the children are in foster care, the tale offers insight into their emotions of rejection, confusion, anger and guilt. He added: “When she was hurdling we said we couldn’t wait to go chasing, which was delayed by a couple of years because of injuries. Until one day, when she rescues a tiny wild foal from the moorland snow and Addie discovers that perhaps she's not so alone after all. I have no idea who this book would be good for, but I know of no middle grader who would enjoy this.

The door opened as Addie and Penny approached, and a small woman in Wellington boots hurried across the yard to meet them. Adults who have a consistent strict no-nonsense stance against bullying in any form would not only benefit the children in their care but also greatly increase the likelihood that those children would feel comfortable confiding in them. Her gluttonous appetite for taking on the famous obstacles lit up a filthy afternoon on Merseyside as Snow Leopardess breezed clear of 20 opponents on the final circuit of the three-and-a-quarter-mile National trial. I think as well that the story was maybe just a little bit drawn out, like it could've been a bit more concise and maybe beated around the bush just a bit, like with Addie wanting to get the foal home (which I also think might've been better if someone had shown up and stopped her before she actually went through with it) and Addie and Sunni's rivalry, which although we seemed to start to get some closure on at the end, it might've been nice if this had come just a little bit earlier, but at gradual stages, as obviously I didn't expect them to become BFFs by the end of the book, but it might've been nice seeming them just gradually and subtly connect over their mutual problems of being in care. You can't possibly begin to understand the magnitude of feelings children go through unless either you've been a foster child yourself and/or witnessed it yourself by being a foster parent, social worker, etc.

Snow Foal – Collins

The general perception in horse racing today is that, once a horse becomes a brood mare, it stays that way, so her trainer bid farewell and toasted the end of an impressive career.Addie is a nuanced, complicated protagonist, while Jude, Sunni, and Gabe are strong supporting characters. Snow Leopardess was putting together a CV of her own – her race record included four wins, including a Listed bumper in Ireland and Newbury’s valuable Mares’ Final – when landing a valuable hurdle race at Auteuil in September 2017. It was interesting as well the subtle innuendos that were made towards just what was up with Addie's mother and what the place was for that she had to go to, I was at first wondering is she disabled or just simply sick, with it then later being confirmed that it was of course due to alcoholism, and that it must've been a rehab centre she went to, but that the alcoholism was meant as a coping mechanism for her own mental issues.
