Description
A heartwarming middle-grade graphic novel about being the new kid, making new friends, and learning to trust yourself through the power of horseback riding--perfect for fans of Victoria Jamieson's Roller Girl. Nora is a prize-winning horseback rider in a suburban area, with a tight-knit circle of best friends. But when her mom gets a prestigious new job in a poor, rural area, she has to adjust to a lot of change: to being the only Black kid in a new class and a new barn called Creaky Acres, where her beloved horse, Hay Fever, will make his new home. It's there she meets sweet and geeky Laura, goofy and fun-loving Wilson, and fearless Dolores (aka Dizzy). With her rag-tag team of equestrians, Nora learns it's okay to stand out and steps into her power as a leader, realizing that being a rider isn't just about winning--or maybe that winning just might look different than what she'd thought.

About the Author
Calista Brill is a writer and editor based in New Hampshire, where she lives with her family and either too many or too few house spiders, depending on how you feel about spiders. She has fallen off as many horses as she has ridden, which is a lot. Although Calista has yet to achieve her life's dream of petting a possum, she has read a lot of comic books, sewed a few quilts, and eaten an appropriate number of lime Popsicles (also a lot). Nilah Magruder is the author of M.F.K., How to Find a Fox, and Wutaryoo. She has written comics, illustrated children's books, and worked as a writer and storyboard artist for animation.
