Moxie Wyoming is a young girl who loves animals. She will help them in whatever way she can and has been known to befriend and provide homes for animals that she stumbles across. The ten year old rider has an incredible mare that she uses on rescue missions.
Whoever looks at Misty may raise their brows in surprise – perhaps even feel that the mare is ugly. She is old and sway backed but Moxie loves her with all her heart. Of course, it helps that her horse has some special powers that others don’t know about. Misty and Moxie can communicate with each other and work together as an incredible team to rescue animals desperately in need.
In this second book in the series, Runaway Rescue, Misty and Moxie find themselves on a learning curve with regards to feral cats. With their incredible bond – and powers – they are able to assist another young girl in the Big Apple – New York. This is pretty incredible, considering the pair reside on her parents farm in Wyoming.
Runaway Rescue is an entertaining read for 7-12 year olds. It focuses on aspects of animal welfare and is adventurous and also full of educational information for readers. Horses feature heavily, but other animals are given plenty of limelight too. This book is one that is sure to appeal to all animal lovers. The beautiful illustrations by Gary McCluskey are bound to win fans, too.
