Personal Opinion:

I am pretty new to the stories of horses, or books involving horses, but I did enjoy reading Finding Home and learning a bit more about them. The story is highly suitable for little ones, and I also enjoyed the pictures a whole lot. While it did seem predictable to me, Finding Home was definitely a heartwarming and sweet novel that portrays life in Colorado and Wyoming as well as giving readers a glimpse of how horses live.
