Summary

Brought to you by Puffin.

The highly anticipated, unforgettable new story from the internationally best-selling, multi-award-winning author of Wonder.

When Silas Bird wakes in the dead of night, he watches powerlessly as three strangers take his father away. Silas is left shaken, scared and alone, except for the presence of his companion, Mittenwool...who happens to be a ghost. But then a mysterious pony shows up at his door and Silas knows what he has to do. So begins a perilous journey to find his father - a journey that will connect him with his past, his future and the unknowable world around him.

Pony is destined to become a future classic.

Beautiful Story

Amazing story from the brilliant writer of Wonder. Set in the 1800s, it follows the journey of 12 year old Silas Bird as he tries to find his father, a genius scientist and photographer who was taken in the night by three armed riders. Silas is accompanied by Mittenwool, a ghost who is his childhood companion, and Pony, a beautiful and unusual Arabian horse who was brought by the armed riders but reappears at the house alone. Although the subject matter would not usually appeal to me, I read this because I loved Wonder and White Bird. I was not disappointed. Palaco's writing had me gripped from the start and I thoroughly enjoyed the story, its twists and turns and the beautiful relationship between Silas, Mittenwool and Pony.

Characters that warmed the heart

This was a heart pounding book full of the most delicate and touching relationships. Mittenwool especially is so beautifully written. And please please can I one day have Pony turn up on my front lawn!
