Misty of Chincoteague Audiobook

" I have loved all of Henry's work since I was a child. "

" I don't really remember too much about this book, but because it was a horse book I probably liked it! : ) "

" I ABOSOLUTLY LOVED this book!!!! "

" I must have read this book a 100 times when I was young. "

" Read oh-so-long ago, but I enjoyed it as a wee thing. "

" I loved this book as a child, so I wanted to read it again. "

" When I was little, I was horse crazy. I read every book possible about horses. I know I read Misty, but I didn't remember it as a favorite. A reread revealed why: the little girl isn't allowed to participate in the round-up because she isn't a boy. She shares her brother's dream of buying Phantom at the next round-up, and she works extra chores to add to their savings. When it comes to the big race, a pull on a wishbone gives the boy the right to ride Phantom. I always felt as though he should have let his sister have that bit of glory since he got to do everything else! "

" FANTASTIC!!! I loved this book so much!! My mom was a horse fan when she was a kid, and she got me into these books. They were confusing to me when i was a kid, but they were a lot better when i turned 10. i really loved this series, and i think you should read it too! "

" Very good books. I really want to visit the area and get my own Chincoteague pony after reading these. "

" This book blew my mind in 3rd grade "

" Huge childhood favorite. Lovely story. "

" This was BY FAR my favorite book as a child. I have also read Henry's other books and loved them all, but Misty was my favorite. She had a way of drawing me in to the drama of Misty's life. Very well written for young readers. It fueled my love of horses. "

" I recently re-read this book and was delighted to find that it matched my happy memories. This is a great story inspired by actual events. Anyone want to road trip to Assateague Island with me? "

" Going to Chincoteague Island is on my bucket list because of this book and all the follow-up stories of Misty's descendants. "

" A cute children's book, but forgettable. Mostly my kids wanted to read it after visiting Chincoteague. "

" it was special because of horses spirits. "

" A classic from the mists of my horse-crazy girlhood! "

" A fun read. The kids enjoyed it and, despite what other reviewers have said, we found it quite engaging. "

" A classic, which I read countless time as a young'un. "

" A great book for kids, packed with excitement, dramatic language, and wonderful horses, as well as a little history. Now it all seems a bit unrealistic, but that's part of the fun. "

" A wonderful series for horse crazy kids. I loved the series when I was younger and read them several times. "

" My all-time favorite book as a kid. I literally tried to memorize it (I think I only made it through the first two pages on that!). "

" I grew up going to Chincoteague for summer vacation and I absolutely adored this book. "

" I think this is a really good book, I mean what little girl did like horse when they were little! "

" I enjoyed this uplifting tale of the spirit of a wonderful pony. "

" Cute, generic horse book. Nothing spectacular, read it mostly for the location. Interested in Chincoteague and Assoteague islands. It had a little information on them. Simple, easy, clear writing, decent story. "

" How I loved this when I was little. "

" I remembered this fondly from my childhood, and so when I had to read a children's book for a challenge, it was a natural choice. It held up really well over the years, and means even more not that I've been to Assateague and Chincoteague. "

" I flew from Orlando to Baltimore today and read this book on the plane. Later this week my mother, sister, and I are spending a couple days on Chincoteague. I have never read this book before and wanted to read it before we go. I thoroughly enjoyed it. "

" This is just one of those stories where you realize "Oh wait...I'm reading about talking horses." Sorry horse fans, this doesn't really do it for me anymore. I used to like it, but now it's just blah. "

" Not even gonna lie- this book was insanely boring. It doesn't help that I'm NOT an animal person but I mean, really. Seriously? Yawn. I'm sure this book was a wonder for all those little girls who wanted ponies but- meh. "

" A story about the wild ponies who inhabit Assateague Island in VA. Once a year some are rounded up on pony penning day and sold at auction for breaking. This is the story of 2 children who tame the wildest of the horses, Phantom, and her colt whom they name Misty. "

" Just as good as I remembered! "

" Horses and adventure who doesn't love Misty? "

" Had to read this again since I was visiting Chincoteague. It was nice being able to actually see the scenes from the book that was one of my childhood favorites. "

" This was a stroll down memory lane for me. As a child I read just about every book Henry wrote. But I had somehow managed to miss this one. Transported me back a few years and then some. "

" THE book that made me a reader. I loved horses. I loved the stories. I loved the illustrations. I still want to see Chincoteague. "

" It was an okay book, yet again! "

" While this wasn't my favorite Marguerite Henry book as a child, re-reading it has certainly brought back a lot of good memories. Also, a reminder that Henry was a very good authors... similar, onomonpeia (sp?)... the whole package. "

" A classic, which I read countless time as a young'un. "

" It just was not the same as I remember reading in elementary. Maybe because horses are not a big interest any more. The excitement is lost. "

" I grew up going to Chincoteague for summer vacation and I absolutely adored this book. "

" One of my favorites from when I was younger. Must read for all the horse loving young girls out there. "

" Love this book as a child! The whole series was wonderful. "

" Beautifully written and illustrated. A classic. Read it as a girl and loved it. Recently bought a beautiful hard cover edition. "

" One of the first books I ever bought with my own money. "

" This book bored me to death so i stopped reading it. "

" This book is about a boy named Paul and a girl named maureen. Paul is going to catch ponys for pony penning day. He wants to catch the phantom. Will he? "

" re-read to my kids. i still loved it. "

" I loved this book so so so much that I'm going to Chincoteague this summer! "

" Another story about a horse which I loved I loved the books by Marguerite Henry. I was fascinated by horses then. Looking at books she wrote now,and back then were only 3. I would love being a child now with all the books Marguerite wrote. I would have lots of reading to do "

" A very memorable homeschool read "

" Will always remind me of my Pop-Pop and our families trips to CI/AI. This book will forever be close to my heart. "

" I liked the book because Misty was a really good horse and Phantom was pretty. And I liked it that Phantom had a foal so that people could catch her and then she went back in the wild. "

" i will see the ponies swim one summer. i will. "

" I think this is a really good book, I mean what little girl did like horse when they were little! "

" I loved these Marguerite Henry stories -- great for the young horse-lover in all of us! "

" I never got into the whole horse obsession a lot girls I knew did, but I did enjoy these books and very briefly took horseback riding lessons. "

" Kids have liked this book, though it hasn't resonated with them the way Understood Betsy or Black Beauty did. "

" this is a wonderful book. Even if you an't a horse lover. "

" This was a family read aloud. We enjoyed it. It was my copy from when I was a kid. Fun story with some adventure. Emphasizes family, hard work, goal setting. The dialogue is fun to read out loud and the illustrations are cute. My kids begged for me to continue reading. "

" Typical horse story, a boy and girl want a horse, save up there money. Don't get the horse, get the horse by act of kindness, happily ever after. "
