by Susan Count – Lori Sanford (Illustrator)

Selah’s Stolen Dream (Dream Horse Adventures)
Young Adult (ages 10-16)
4th in Series
Publisher: Hastings Creations Group (January 1, 2020)
Paperback: 262 pages

One girl’s victory is another’s tragic defeat.

Thirteen-year-old Selah’s perfect life unravels when her beloved horse is stolen. Then ten-year-old Emma buys the dream of a lifetime at a horse auction. When she learns the horse was stolen, even removing her hearing aid won’t drown out the voice telling her to make it right.

But two girls can’t divide the horse they both adore. So will life surprise them with an answered prayer?

My review of Selah’s Stolen Dream

If you’ve got a tween daughter, granddaughter, niece, etc., who loves horses, you need to introduce her to Selah. Selah’s Stolen Dream is the fourth book in the Dream Horse Adventures series. Though it can be read as a standalone, it helps to begin at the beginning!

My daughter has always loved horses. She read a lot of horse books! I was never like those girls who go through the horse love phase (some never grow out of it!), so it was fun for me to buy her horse books and toys. She’ll never get rid of them even though she’s not as obsessive about horses as she once was.

I think my daughter would have enjoyed reading the Dream Horse Adventures series. Selah’s Stolen Dream has characters that young horse lovers can relate to especially if they ride. As you can read in the synopsis, this book involves a moral dilemma in which a young girl, Emma, has to make a very hard choice.

Emma has wanted a horse of her own for a very long time. When the pony she’s been riding becomes too old to handle Emma’s riding lessons, she becomes even more desperate for a horse of her own. Imagine her dilemma when Emma finds out that the horse she’s finally been able to buy turns out to be Dream, Selah’s horse that was stolen.

This would be a good book to use teach your daughter about making hard choices. Check this one out for your horse loving girls.

About Susan Count

How many twists and turns can one person take before they figure out what they were born to do? Susan Count’s degree is in Applied Science–nothing in that prepared her to write novels for children. But one day, she began to write with no preconceived ideas. No one could have been more astounded than she was when it turned into a middle grade equine series. As a member of Society of Children’s Book Writers and Illustrators, American Christian Fiction Writers, and Texas Association of Authors, she takes the craft of writing seriously and considers revision to be her super-power.

She writes at an antique secretary desk that occupies a glass room with a forest view. Fittingly, it once belonged to the same wise grandmother who introduced Susan to the love of reading via Walter Farley’s horse books. That desk has secret compartments which hold memories, mysteries and story ideas.

Susan is a lifelong equestrian and is owned by a Rocky Mountain Horse. She is convinced that the only thing more delightful than riding the forest trails might be writing horse adventure stories. She invites you to saddle up and ride along.

  • My cousin used to belong to 4-H and jump horses, so I like reading about them. It must have been awfully sad when her horse was missing.
