The Sandy Lanes stables series - previously published in paperback - is now part of the Usborne Reading Programme. Sitting above Young Reading Series Three, Young Reading Plus is for fully confident, independent readers who still need lots of practice in order to build their reading stamina and vocabulary. Jess uses her quick reactions to catch a beautiful runaway pony that gallops into Sandy Lane Stables. But is the man chasing her all he seems? Soon, Jess is bitterly regretting her moment of heroism. This exciting tale from the Usborne Young Reading Programme is one of a series of horse stories that are ideal for newly independent readers.
