"A poignant, expressive picture book about fraught sibling relationships." - The guardian"Both big and little siblings will see a bit of themselves in this exquisite equine-saturated tale." - Kirkus ReviewsSHORTLISTED for The Oscar's Book Prize 2025SHORTLISTED for the IBC Awards 2025My sister and me fight! / Push Pull Hurt Hide. / We would not use our words. This little boy does not get on with his sister. They misunderstand each other, struggle to communicate, and they fight. Afterwards, there's a lot of hurt, heavy feelings and loneliness. In order to escape their constant rowing and clear his head, the boy often retreats to his bedroom when he writes his stories. He writes stories about terrible horses - trampling and galloping - and he, a lone pony, who cannot compete and cannot speak. But what happens when his sister finds his book? Could it be a way for them to finally understand each other? Filled with empathy and poignance, Terrible Horses is a beautiful and powerful story of managing anger, reflection and learning to see someone else's perspective.
