Holly was a happy horse with plenty of things to be grateful for. But when she heard her sisters mention "the greenest, most delectable grass," she was off on a quest to find this grass. And what an adventure it was! On the way, she met new friends who helped her find the way. Finally she found what she was seeking, but she was in for a big surprise and a valuable lesson learned."Holly Horse and the Great Quest" is a fine bedtime story for youngsters, especially kids who've dreamed of having their own pony. The story has a little bit of animal lore as Holly befriends critters like Gary Goat, Ollie Owl, and Tim Tortoise, each of which helps her along the way. As Holly gets further and further away from home, she gradually realizes that the grass isn't always greener on the other side of the fence. The lesson: There's no place like home.
