Willa and her pals are back for more hilarious and heartfelt adventures … this time at HORSE CAMP. Trail rides, horseback swims, new #HorseGirl and (gasp!) #HorseBoy friends — it’s going to be the best summer in the history of summers! But when a beloved steed goes missing, everyone at Juniper Ranch is suddenly a suspect. Willa isn’t sure who to trust … or how she’ll save her “forever herd” before a frightening storm rolls into camp. Gulp!
Now translated into four languages, this bestselling, hilariously voiced middle-grade novel is Mean Girls meets Black Beauty for the horse girl crew. Humanizing, heart-warming, and wildly funny, Horse Girl redefines what it means to be a young girl who loves horses.
"This book is funny and exciting. Beautifully portrays both the pleasures and risks of riding horses and also of being a teen. Very original, and a great pleasure to read."
— Jane Smiley, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of A Thousand Acres
“From the deliciously zippy dialogue to the hilarious misadventures of a sassy equestrian misfit and her equine accomplices, Carrie Seim perfectly captures what it means to be a true ‘HORSE GIRL’ circa-now — and always.”
— Sarah Maslin Nir, New York Times staff reporter and author of Horse Crazy
"A book of exceptional wit and heart, a rare and dangerous combination. Seim clears every jump with grace." — Matthew Aldrich, screenwriter of Disney/Pixar's Coco
"Horse Girl had my daughter enthralled. Carrie Seim's writing is both funny and poignant. She spins a heartwarming tale of 'finding your forever herd' that will connect with kids and families of all kinds. There's even an awkward dad character. (Ahem.) No comment.
— Dana Gould, writer and co-executive producer of The Simpsons
"Melodrama, angst and clever footnotes make this a breezy read for tweens with strong reader appeal." — Kirkus Reviews
"A fun story of fitting in, a slight mystery, and friendly competition. A great alternative to the more mean-girl 'Canterwood Crest' series, without losing the relatable preteen voice and story line." — School Library Journal
"The Horse Girl adventures really capture a horse lover's imagination with their spirited stories and girl talk. What a great idea and a fun read." — Soledad O'Brien, Peabody award-winning journalist, author and producer
