Publisher's Summary:
When Macadoo is just a colt, he challenges his father, a huge Belgian stallion, in order to protect his mother and the rest of the herd. From that moment on, Mac knows that his purpose in life is to help and serve others however he can. Though Macadoo endures much adversity - leaving the only home hes ever known, being separated from his dam, and surviving an auction that for many horses is their final stop before the slaughterhouse - he finds the courage to "walk on" through even the most difficult circumstances. And he eventually finds a sense of home and good companions, first with Izzy, Poppa, and their mules, then at the Maury River Stables, where he learns to teach children therapeutic riding and vaulting.
Told from Macadoos point of view and featuring beloved characters from Chancey of the Maury River, this is a story that horse lovers will cherish.

11 year old loved it!
Excellent writing!
Excellent books! Real soul and character, beautifully written, and thoroughly enjoyed by my 11 year old boy.
Solid Story Line With Great Characters
I enjoyed reading a story from a horse's POV. The author took me on a journey through the life of a Belgian and I learned a lot about the breed's capabilities. I liked the main character's interaction with other horses and with people. I would recommend this book to anyone who is interested in therapy horses and what it takes to be one.
Inspiring for the heart!
Wow! This book was amazing! Reminds me so much of how far the world has gone! I can't wait to read the next book. Just want to say that Gigi Amateau is a real good author, who can make you feel "that" feeling of being in the book there with the story!
