The most famous and loved racing story of all time. National Velvet
is a classic tale of dreams, ambition and one girl's belief in a
horse. 'Velvet'll sit on a horse like a shadow and breathe her soul
into it ... I never seen such a creature on a horse.' Fourteen year
old Velvet is mad about horses. When she wins a piebald horse in a
raffle, she knows he's something special. His heart is as big as
the five-foot fences he jumps, and he'll do anything for Velvet.
Soon, she and her friend Mi have their sights set on the biggest
race in England. But can a girl win the Grand National? Perfect for
horse and ponly lovers from nine to ninety nine years old. The book
that inspired the classic film starring Elizabeth Taylor, National
Velvet is a true classic of print and screen. Alongside Black
Beauty and My Friend Flicka it is one of the great horse books for
children. 'My childhood dreams were based on this book - it was the
only place I'd ever seen them come true' Clare Balding
