Misty’s First Christmas, Susan Friedland

It’s Christmas Eve, and Misty is missing!

Just as Marguerite and Sidney Henry prepare for their first Christmas together with the filly Misty, Marguerite’s writing muse for her forthcoming children’s book Misty of Chincoteague, disaster strikes. Misty slips out of her stall and disappears into the woods.

Marguerite is determined not to spend the holiday without her new pony, and teams up with a seasoned huntsman and his two trusty field hunters for a wild, wintry ride through the snow-covered countryside in search of the spirited weanling.

Will Marguerite face a Christmas without Misty? Or will the spirited filly find her way home in time for a Christmas miracle?

Perfect for fans of Marguerite Henry’s classic stories, Misty’s First Christmas is a heartwarming tale of adventure, hope, and the magic of the holiday season.
