So if you’re a fan of the Free Rein series, I encourage you to head along to Amazon to secure your copies! Or, if you know of middle grade horse crazy fans, then why not check out this series that currently has fourteen books they can get stuck into?
— Blurb for Discernment:
The New Year is fast approaching. Jared is learning that he doesn’t need to wait until a New Year to set resolutions. Instead, each day he can make choices to improve and help others. He plans to continue learning about horses and the bible as much as he can.
Between Jed and Jacqui, the teenage boy is also learning how to pay attention to his feelings about other people. Some negative feelings about Jed leave Jared questioning how he can determine if his feelings are worth paying attention to. With the help of his horsey friends, Jared goes on another learning curve. This leads to a study on the word discernment. Jared finds the Christian faith is once again teaching him some important lessons about life and friendships.
Blurb for Belonging:
Jared is pleased to find himself welcomed into the ‘horse riding family’ by Jacqui King, even if he doesn’t like the way it came about. This event causes him to question when the grey gelding Chairo will settle into the herd. Although Chairo is now paddocked with the other horses, he doesn’t seem to have bonded with any of them. Jared is keen for his favourite horse to truly settle in at the Kings’ property.
As Jared continues to learn about horses, his youth leader Jed Hansen teaches him about becoming a part of the Christian family. The thirteen-year-old goes on a journey, thankful to find that he and Chairo seem to have found a place to belong.
— I’m in the middle of a couple of different horse books since my latest Free Rein update. I’m currently reading Beautiful Horseflesh by Karen S. Bennett and Moving North by Tudor Robins. Reviews will be posted at my blog Equus Education once I’ve finished them and had a chance to review.
