The Wild Stallion

There were those who thought the rare and beautiful wild stallion might have been sired by a famous race horse lost years earlier. Others whispered that it was a ghost horse stealing mares away in the night. But most didn’t believe in the stallion at all. To them it was just a myth. But for Hannah Mills and C.J. Adams the myth would become as real as the wild mountain range the wraith stallion called home.

Wild Stallion is a modern day adventure about two girls whose love for all wild creatures is tested just as their budding friendship will be. Hannah and her father arrive at Matty Steadman’s, Bear Mountain Ranch. Hannah has come west from Cleveland to photograph the famous wild horses found on Matty’s ranch. C.J. is from the neighboring ranch. Although C.J. is put off by Mattie’s request to babysit Hannah, she reluctantly agrees to show her around. Turns out to be one of the best decisions of her young life as the two girls become instant friends.

We discover, through the girls, the wild horses are disappearing from the range at an alarming rate. A wealthy mysterious stranger, Novak, appears to be the instigator of a sinister plot to steal all the mountain mustangs. But while taking photographs of the wild herd one afternoon, the two girls happen upon the mysterious "Wild Stallion.”The girls rush home to tell Matty and her ranch hands about their discovery. Matty cautions all of them not to tell anyone about the black stallion because unscrupulous mustangers would want the rare stallion and would stop at nothing to get him.
