Editorial Reviews: Product Description Nobody could capture the Phantom. She was the wildest mare on Assateague Island. They said she was like the wind, that the white "map" on her shoulders was her mark of freedom. Paul and Maureen Beebe had their hearts set on owning her. They were itching to buy and tame her, and worked hard to earn the money that she would cost. But the roundup men had tried to capture her and for two years she had escaped them.... Pony Penning Day holds a surprise for everyone, for Paul not only brings in the Phantom, but her newborn colt as well. Can Paul and Maureen possibly earn enough to buy them both? Amazon.com Review On an island off the coasts of Virginia and Maryland lives a centuries-old band of wild ponies. Among them is the most mysterious of all, Phantom, a rarely seen mare that eludes all efforts to capture her--that is, until a young boy and girl lay eyes on her and determine that they can't live without her. The frenzied roundup that follows on the next "Pony Penning Day" does indeed bring Phantom into their lives, in a way they never would have suspected. Phantom would forever be a creature of the wild. But her gentle, loyal colt Misty is another story altogether. Marguerite Henry's Newbery Honor Book has captivated generations of boys and girls both with its thrilling descriptions of true incidents from the tiny island of Chincoteague, and its realistic yet wonderfully magical atmosphere. This story of an animal brought into captivity poignantly reveals the powerful opposing forces of humans and nature. Wesley Dennis's pen-and-ink ponies are masterfully depicted with rippling muscles, shaggy coats, and free spirits. (Ages 9 to 12) --Emilie Coulter

Customer Reviews: Read 69 more reviews... A classic! November 25, 2008 MISTY OF CHINCOTEAGUE is one of my favorite horse books! Henry writes with such an understanding of the bond between Misty and her human family. Funny, heartbreaking and full of horses. A perfect read! good memories August 25, 2008 This book contains some language that is hard for my 5 year old to understand--lots of dialect. But the story is good and there are a fair number of black and white pictures. A great horse story! June 17, 2008 This is one of the best books for horse (and pony) crazy girls. My mom read it when she was younger and now I fell in love with it. It's a sweet story and really makes me want to go to pony penning day! false advertising April 26, 2008 0 out of 2 found this review helpful Book was advertised as hard-bound in very good condition. Book received was paperback in poor condition. This was very disappointing, as I intended the book as a gift for a young boy after describing to him that I had known Grandpa Beebe, a central character in the book. I did receive a refund of my payment and the seller chose not to pay for return of the mis-advertised item. This book literally changed my life November 7, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful In a very real way, this book changed my life. I still remember the exact moment. I was 7 years old and went to a friend's house to play. She was reading when I got there. Reading? That was just something you did when your teacher's made you.... Well, she handed me Misty and from that moment on I was hooked. I have been an avid reader since that book showed me what amazing worlds could be found between the pages of a book.
