A wild ringing neigh shrilled up from the Spanish Galleon. That was the first part of Misty of chincoteaque. The author is Marqurit Henry. The main charters are Paul Bebee, The "Phantom", Misty, and Maureen Bebee. The main conflict is about the Phantom is a horse and Misty is the foal. The phantom is a wild horse that is about to have a foal. The reason why i like the book is because there is great action and there is horses. It has lovable characters! My favorite character is Misty! The reason why is because she is so cute. The action is about a race in chapter 17. Misty looks like her mom. It is a great book and I want to read it again!

Marguerite Henry writes wonderful books about horses, and this one is by far my favorite. It is about a brother and sister named Paul and Maureen who have their hearts set on buying the horse that everyone calls Phantom. They want to buy her at the annual Pony Penning Day. For years no one has been able to catch her because she always slips out of their grasp and is believed to be a "Phantom". But this year Paul is finally old enough to go over to Chincoteague island and round up the horses with all the other men. The stakes aren't exactly fair for the Phantom though, because she has a colt! Paul and Maureen have saved enough money for the Phantom, but they hadn't realized they would have to buy the colt too. This is a great story that shows you that not everything is meant to be in captivity, some things are just wild.
I didn't read a lot of this book yet but from the way I see it it looks like a wonderful book to read when you love horses or really any animal.
love thos book
It is the best book and I would encourage everyone 10 and up to read this classic.
