5 out of 5 stars Bring back the old covers!   November 4, 2003

These were some of my favorite books when I was a child, but these glossy new covers just take me out of the moment! Bring back the beautiful watercolor covers by Wesley Dennis! No Marguerite Henry fan should settle for less.


5 out of 5 stars Misty of Chincoteague   December 13, 2002
 14 out of 17 found this review helpful

Hi, I would like to tell you about a book called Misty of Chincoteage. The aurther of this book is Marguertie Henrey. This
book has 173 pages. The book is illustrated by Wesley Dennis. The genre of this book is fiction because it's made-up.
The setting is Chincoteague island. THe time is through out the 1900's. Misty of Chincoteague is a wounderful book.It's about a boy and a girl named Paul and Mareen Beebe. There's a horse that they want so badley. The horses name is Phantom. Phantom has a baby named Misty. I don't want to give away the ending.
The three reasons why I liked it are the book had wonderful illustrations, good use of words,and it's appropriate for school. I would recomend this book to fourth grades through out adults. The reason is because it's easy to comprehand.
If you really like horses you should read Misty of Chincoteague. Bye!!

THIS GREAT SET INCLUDES 3 BOOKS. THEY ARE ALL ON CERTAIN CHINCOTEAGUE PONIES. MISTY, THE 1ST BOOK IS MY FAVORITE. I'D GIVE IT 5 STARS!! SEA STAR, THE 2ND BOOK WOULD GET 4 AND 1_2 STARS BUT STORMY IS WHERE I HAVE PROBLEMS. WHAT HAPPENS BETWEEN SEA STAR AND NOW? HOW DID MISTY GET BACK? THIS WOULD GET 3 STARS.


5 out of 5 stars A Book for All Ages   November 25, 2001
 21 out of 21 found this review helpful

I read this the first time when I was in Elementary School (3rd or 4th grade). I loved it then, and even now, years later, I still re-read it. The book has a quality that makes it worthwhile to read- over and over and over!! I recommend it for readers of all ages. Children will love it, especially horse crazy girls! Well worth the price- it's a children's classic that should last for many, many, many years too come.

It was also made into a movie (titled "Misty" in 1961, hard to find), and has at least two books that come after it. (Stormy, Misty's Foal, Misty's Twilight, and a related but not sequel book: Sea Star: Orphan of Chincoteauge).


5 out of 5 stars A Real Good Book About Horses   January 10, 2001
 4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I like to read about horses and families and this was a real good book about both. When I was reading Misty of Chincoteague, I almost felt like I was on the island with Paul, Maureen and their Grandparents. I really would recommend this book to anyone who likes to read about horses and I liked how it ended.
