Horse Stories for Girls 8–12 About Friendship, Courage, and Growing Up

Welcome to Moonlight Glen Stables, where the lessons go far beyond the riding ring.

This collection features heartfelt stories about girls who are learning what it means to be brave, kind, and true to themselves — with horses by their side. Whether it’s Ellie facing the trail with a prosthetic arm, Sophie trying to prove she’s more than just the little sister, or Maya adjusting to a new home and life, each story captures the quiet moments of growth that shape a young life.

At Moonlight Glen, not every challenge is a jump to clear. Some are about letting go, speaking up, or taking care of someone else. Listeners will discover:

• True-to-life friendships and emotional growth
• Genuine relationships with horses rooted in care, trust, and responsibility
• Horse knowledge woven into the stories, from basic care to famous breeds and real-world competitions like the Tevis Cup
• Characters of different backgrounds and abilities, written with care and authenticity
• Illustrated vignettes at the start and end of each story to draw young listeners in
