Pony Pals
Author:
Jeanne Betancourt

Pony Pals are a series of horse books aimed at young readers. Each book tells a story centered around the three main characters and their ponies: Anna & Acorn, Pam & Lightning, and Lulu & Snow White. These three girls are close friends and have named themselves "The Pony Pals". Usually in each book they have some sort of problem to overcome, which they manage to achieve in the end by working together. The storylines are fairly simple and familiar, and pretty much stick to the usual formula seen in most series of horse books for kids. However, the horse content is very high which is a plus for real horse fanatics and will keep some interest there.

Given that the target audience for this series is probably under-10s it is slightly difficult for me to give it a fair review. Pony Pals are suitable for the age they are aimed at, but are nothing particularly outstanding and are extremely predictable. However, I do recommend them for young horselovers at this reading level as they are a relaxing and pleasant read and definitely "horsey"! Add an extra "horseshoe" to the rating if you're under ten.
