Book Synopsis Year of the Black Pony by : Walt Morey
Download or read book Year of the Black Pony written by Walt Morey and published by Bethlehem Books. This book was released on 2006-05-04 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Fellows family has joined numerous others striving to make a go of homesteading in the Oregon high desert. But the venture has been disastrous from the start. Mr. Fellows, who is not a farmer, resents any advice from his wife, who grew up on a farm. Ma is not only troubled about the farming, but 7-year-old Ellie’s chronic illness has become a source of constant worry and expense. 12-year-old Chris, who cannot seem to please his father no matter what he does, eases his own misery by stealing time away from work to watch a neighbor’s scarcely broken black pony, only to get into more trouble. When it seems circumstances could not get worse for the struggling family, Fellows gets drunk and dies. Not willing to give up, Ma stubbornly—and creatively—seeks a way for the family to stay in Oregon. Frank Chase, an unintentional element in the death of Chris’s father, is added to the mix and challenged by Ma to keep his word to help the family. The resultant dramatic and sometimes humorous contest of wills comes to a satisfying culmination when, after Frank’s purchase of the wild black pony for Chris, Ma is reluctantly forced to once again use her “backbone of steel” for the good of all. Walt Morey’s careful research and vivid storytelling talent warmly bring to life the struggles and triumphs of homesteading in the Oregon high desert country in the early 1900’s.
Download or read book Flying Black Ponies written by Kit Lavell and published by Naval Institute Press. This book was released on 2009-09-01 with total page 342 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The tragic, the comic, the terrifying, the poignant are all part of the story of the Black Pony pilots who distinguished themselves in the Mekong Delta during the Vietnam War. Flying their turboprop Broncos "down and dirty, low and slow," they killed more of the enemy and saved more allied lives with close-air support than all the other naval squadrons combined during the three years they saw action. Author Kit Lavell was part of this squadron of "black sheep" given a chance to make something of themselves flying these dangerous missions. The U.S. Navy's only land-based attack squadron, Light Attack Squadron Four (VAL-4) flew support missions for the counter insurgency forces, SEALs, and allied units in borrowed, propeller-driven OV-10s. For fixed-wing aircraft they were dangerous, unorthodox missions, a fact readers quickly come to appreciate.
Book Synopsis The Zebra and the Black Pony by : Francesca Ferrentelli
Download or read book The Zebra and the Black Pony written by Francesca Ferrentelli and published by Bookbaby. This book was released on 2020-12-23 with total page 28 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Eight year-old Maria wants a black pony more than anything in the world. She excitedly hopes that her upcoming birthday is the day her dream will come true. Although her parents can't afford a black pony, a local petting zoo is going out of business and has offered them a free zebra named Ace. When her parents bring Ace home and present him to Maria for her birthday, she is terribly disappointed. Because she doesn't want to hurt their feelings, she pretends to be happy. At night though, she secretly hopes and prays that Ace will transform into the black pony she desires. Maria believes that if she loves him enough, takes really good care of him, and wishes strongly enough, and tells him how cool black ponies are, he will change into the pet she wants. Eventually Ace, who recognizes her disappointment, feels dejected and runs away. He knows that he is not wanted. After Ace is gone, Maria realizes that she truly loves him. In a frantic search her family helps her find him and welcome him back home. Ace is reluctant to return home but Maria assures him that she loves him and accepts him as the zebra he is. The Zebra and the Black Pony is a story about hope, love, understanding, and accepting those as they are. On the surface, The Zebra and the Black Pony is simply a children's book; however, it can be used as a powerful tool for personal growth. Dr. Ferrentelli wrote the story specifically to be used with Transformational Storytelling, a therapeutic method of storytelling she uses in her practice. Stories and storytellers have been around for thousands of years. We can relate to the characters and their actions. Stories also move us in powerful ways. Because we are one level removed from the action, we can see things more objectively. It is the character's plight, not ours. This empathy can lead us to a deeper understanding of ourselves. The first part of the book explains how this method of personal growth can be used. Readers can return to the story again and again for new insights.
