Wild Horse Winter -- Based on an actual event, this suspenseful story tells the miraculous saga of a herd of beautiful wild horses and details the life of a young colt as it matures and follows the lead of its protective mother to overcome a wild, raging blizzard in the dramatic conclusion of their journey. The soft paintings combine with the simple text to bring a vanishing breed vividly to life. A wonderful book for reading aloud or for sharing, the story subtly parallels the growth of all creatures and underscores the strong bonds that exist between parent and child.

Tetsuya Honda first studied to be a teacher, but his love of wild animals led him to pursue a career in wildlife art. Now a full time painter, Mr. Honda lives in Japan.
