The Horse Tamer's Niece: Book 1 in a Racing Chance Series - Tapa blanda

Kris Prather was born in the scenic state of Montana, where her two passions were easily discovered and nurtured: horses and literature. Kris spent countless hours losing herself in Walter Farleyas Black Stallion series of books, and then, after receiving her first horse at age ten, she devoted equal time to pretending to be a world famous jockey. Krisas dream was nearly realized when, in 2002, she led the entire nation in wins by a jockey before suffering the first of many injuries, the last of which eliminated professional riding as a career option. It was a devastating blow. Fortunately for Kris, she is equally as adept in writing as she was in riding, and she has now funneled her boundless creative energy into writing entertaining and insightful literature while drawing from her career as a jockey to write her first young adult novel that centers around the fast-paced, colorful world of racing. In it, a young girl named Chance gets just that, the chance of a lifetime, when she is introduced to Cyclone, a young, confident champion colt. The two must overcome a series of challenges to prove they have what it takes to make it in the racing gauntlet of hard-knocks.
