I have to say that "Pony Tales" turned out to be a thoroughly engaging read that had me laughing on moment and tearing up the next as Peta Carr recounted her unusual journey of creating a riding school in the rural Canadian wilds. The book is bouncy, charming, emotionally compelling, vividly written and has a strong sense of authenticness that just makes you want to dive headfirst into Ms. Carr's story all the more. This is a unique memoir with a quirky and decidedly delightful story to tell, one that just makes me think of a real life Anne Shirley and all of the humorous stories that come with it. Ms. Carr has a talent for writing that draws the reader in and keeps you eagerly reading from start to finish using vibrant storytelling and an honest poignantly funny writing style. Overall, this was a delightful read that certainly left and impression.
