The magnificent Lipizzan stallions of Vienna come to life as never
before in this exciting story from Newbery Award-winning author
Marguerite Henry, back in print by popular demand.
A young boy named Hans dreams of one day working with the famed
stallions of Lipizza. But coming from a family of bakers, Hans is
discouraged from ever becoming a rider. That is, until the day he
is invited to watch the extraordinary Ballet of Lipizzaners--from
the Imperial Box --and his life is changed forever.
Marguerite Henry artfully includes authentic details about the
skillful training of both horse and rider as she weaves the story
of Hans and his beloved Lipizzan stallion, Borina. The brilliance
of Hans's dazzling public performances and his devotion to the art
of classical riding make this story uniquely rich in history and
horsemanship--a tale to be treasured by horse lovers of all ages.
This beloved story from Newbery Award-winning author Marguerite
Henry features the original text and illustrations with gorgeous
new cover art.
