Description
Publisher's Description of Andi Saddles Up Book 1 (Circle C Stepping Stones)
Andi Carter has just turned nine. She and her palomino, Taffy, are old enough to be a real horse-and-rider pair at last! With a beautiful new saddle, Andi's sure she is ready to learn to trick ride like her friend Riley used to do before he left the ranch.
Sadly, big brother Chad knocks down any trick-riding plans, but Andi cheers up when she discovers a new friend at her special spot. Her fun with Sadie is soon threatened, though. They are caught in the middle of a boundary quarrel between the two families. Both Sadie's pa and Chad are stubborn as mules and neither will back down.
Can Andi and Sadie hang on to their friendship while the adults are fighting?
Category Description for Circle C Stepping Stones
The Circle C Stepping Stones Series engages young readers as they grow alongside Andi. Andi is now nine years old. She is growing in responsibility as she cares for her palomino horse, Taffy. Together they have adventures across the Wild West of the late 1800’s along with their new friends. Even though Andi is a grown-up nine-year-old, she still struggles to heed instruction (especially when that instruction comes from big brother). This is a great stand-alone series that is ‘just right’ for those readers who are not quite ready for middle school chapter books. Each book in the series is approximately 12 chapters and ~100 pages long. This book series emphasizes good Christian morals, so parents can feel good about handing each one to their young readers. Each book has a free pdf Lesson Plan download with discussion questions and activities. Free coloring pages can be downloaded. For additional engagement with the text, check out the publisher website www.CircleCAdventures.com for lapbook activity books to go along with each book in this series. ~Rebecca
