Maple the Little Horse
A Children's Book About Being Brave
Maple the little horse dreams of jumping the old log in the meadow, just like Thunder, the tallest horse on Willow Hill Farm. But every time she trots up to it, her tummy does a flip-flop and she says, “Maybe tomorrow.”
With a little wisdom from Thunder and lots of cheering from Dot the duck and Whiskers the barn cat, Maple takes a deep breath, gives it a try, and finds out what real courage looks like, even when she tumbles into the grass.
Coming soon to Amazon in paperback and Kindle
