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. "
