Produktbeschreibung
Emily Edwards knows everything there is to know about horses. There's just one problem-she's never ridden one. Twelve-year-old Emily has spent years preparing for her equestrian future. She's devoured horse books, memorized riding techniques, and watched more how-to videos than she can count. When she wins an essay contest and earns a scholarship to a week of horse camp, she knows it's the moment she's been waiting for. At camp, Emily is eager to shine. But the no-nonsense head instructor isn't impressed by how much Emily knows-only by what she can do in the saddle. As Emily struggles to turn book knowledge into real-life skills, she begins to realize that becoming an equestrian extraordinaire will require more than knowing the right answers. Determined to make a friend, Emily soon discovers that fitting in is harder than she imagined-and finding her place might be her biggest challenge yet. Emily Edwards Equestrian Extraordinaire is a fun, heartfelt middle-grade novel about confidence, perseverance, and discovering that there's more than one way to become extraordinary.
Autorenporträt
Multi-award-winning author and lifelong horse enthusiast, Laura Holt-Haslam, writes realistic middle grade fiction that inspires readers of all ages. While horses feature prominently, the heart of her writing revolves around the human characters as they navigate life in less-than-perfect families, learn how to make and be friends, overcome challenges that stand in the way of their dreams, and discover the healing power of love and forgiveness. Laura is passionate about sharing her love of horses through art, writing, and hands-on learning. For over thirty-five years, she has taught basic horsemanship and mentored hundreds of children and teens, encouraging them not only to become more confident equestrians, but more compassionate people. Laura is the mother of two young adult children. She lives in Southern Maine with her husband, two adorably naughty cats, and the friendliest dog you'll ever meet. She and her daughter share ownership of Max, a 27-year-old palomino miniature horse who loves to jump. Learn more about Laura and her books, and Max and his friends at https://lauraholthaslam.com/.
