Anyone else manage to snag The Eighty-Dollar Champion?

:( No.

Can't wait to hear what you think of it!

So far I'm loving it. It is a little bit more of the entire idea of horse riding in general.. the complete history, if you will.. but it's told in a good way that is interesting and is setting the backdrop for when we get to the actual story of the horse. Right now, though he and his trainer are kind of like afterthoughts to history. It flows very naturally though. As I said, I'm enjoying it very much.

I got it! I loved it too. I was a bit worried the author wouldn't do justice to deLeyer and Snowman, but she did a terrific job. I already posted my review.

The story of Snowman is one of my favorite horse tales ... the discovery that Snowman was jumping big fences to get back home is so colorful and heartwarming.

It was great to read about it too. That was written very well, I think. It pulled at the heart in a special way.

I LOVED it! I enjoyed the story about him and his owner, but I also enjoyed some of the horse industry history. It's a great read!
