Twelve-year-old Silas is awoken in the dead of night by three menacing horsemen who take his father away. Silas is left shaken, scared, and alone, except for the presence of his companion, Mittenwool...who happens to be a ghost. When a pony shows up at his door, Silas makes the courageous decision to leave his home and embark on a perilous journey to find his father. Along the way, he will face his fears to unlock the secrets of his past and explore the unfathomable mysteries of the world around him. R. J. Palacio spins a harrowing yet distinctly beautiful coming-of-age story about the power of love and the ties that bind us across distance and time. With the poignant depth of War Horse and the singular voice of True Grit, this is one of those rare books poised to become an instant classic for readers of all ages.

Haunting and gorgeous submitted by mariekakaye on June 13, 2022, 10:08pm This was a very powerful story that wasn't just another horsey adventure book. While written for young adults, it's very mature and will captivate adults. I would recommend this for people 13+. I read it with my 10-year old and we were haunted and very touched by the characters. Some of the vocabulary was incredibly advanced. The story is very deep, dark, and intelligent. I won't forget it for a long time.
