Reach for this book when your child is struggling with the separation between their home life and school life, or when they are expressing a deep, almost inseparable bond with a family pet. It is a comforting choice for children who find the classroom environment a bit stiff and wish they could bring a piece of their world from home along with them. The story follows Emma and her mischievous but loyal pony, Sheltie, who decides that he does not want to be left behind when Emma goes to school. The book explores themes of loyalty, the humor found in unexpected situations, and the slight embarrassment that comes when our private lives collide with our public ones. It is perfectly pitched for early elementary readers who are developing independence but still crave the security of their favorite companions.
