Joel Goss knows that Little Bub is a special colt, even though he's a runt. And when schoolteacher Justin Morgan asks Joel to break the colt in, Joel is thrilled! Soon word about Little Bub has spread throughout the entire Northeast -- this spirited colt can pull heavier loads than a pair of oxen. And run faster than thoroughbreds!

This is the story of the little runt who became the father of the world-famous breed of American horses -- the Morgan.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very sweet story
Reviewed in the United States on May 3, 2021

I owned a little Morgan horse that was the spitting image of his sire, who was the spitting image of Justin Morgan. My horse had the long tail that dragged on the ground, stocky build, small curved ears, and loved being the center of attention. Reading this book reminds me of horse from long ago and my passion for riding. It also reminded me of growing up in Maine and the unique New England expressions. I can just picture the accents. I am so glad I found this book. I’m looking forward to reading more. Yeah, it’s a little silly for a grown woman to be reading kids books, but it brings back memories of my childhood.

I gave this book four stars because the bok was a really great book, but you shouldn't expect this firework ending. I would expect the author to go on, but I didn't write this book. If you like horses, this is (obviously) the book for you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Marguerite Henry And Another Masterpiece.
Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2013
Verified Purchase
Marguerite passed away years ago, but her writing lives on and thrills every new generation and enthralls those who have read it in the past. I'm one of those who read it in the past, but I can truly say that it was just as interesting, maybe MORE than the first time I read it. Being a horse lover and a writer about horses myself, I was not disappointed in this purchase. I recommend this one to anyone who likes to read, but any parent with a horse loving child should get this for that child.

Absolutely ADORE this story! I did not read it until now in my adulthood but it is great no matter who you are! I did read the book in a very short time as it is geared for children. Now I am looking for the movie Disney made on DVD!
