Reach for this book when your child feels like they do not fit a specific mold or when they are struggling with being left out because they do not look or act like the 'popular' group. Fritz is a kind, hardworking pony who is denied entry to a beautiful walled city because he lacks the elegant mane and stature of the other horses. However, when a crisis occurs and the 'beautiful' horses are too afraid to help, Fritz's steady nature and sure-footedness save the day. It is a timeless story about how true value lies in character and capability rather than outward appearance. Perfect for ages 4 to 8, it provides a gentle way to discuss self-worth and the importance of looking past the surface to find a true hero.
