My Friend Flicka

By: Mary O'Hara

Narrated by: Michael Louis Wells

It seems Ken can't do anything right. He loses saddle blankets and breaks reins...but then comes the worst news yet: a report card so bad that he has to repeat a grade. How can you tame the dreamy mind of a boy who stares out of the window instead of taking an exam? Enter Flicka, the chestnut filly with a wild spirit. Over the course of one magical summer, both will learn the meaning of responsibility, courage, and, ultimately, friendship.©1940, 1941, renewed 1968, 1969 Mary O'Hara (P)2005 HarperCollinsPublishers, Inc.

The narrator did a good job with the various voices.

Such a wonderful book from my childhood. The love between a horse and her boy.

Awesome story

I love horses. I love sad, sweet story's too. So I love my friend Flicka is because it's a sad, sweet story.

Better Than Even I Remembered

Why is this only on Audible Kids? Like all classics, this is a complex story with appeal to adults as well - it’s actually an adult novel with simple aspects that appeal to kids. I have re-read it many times at various stages of life. I am near 60 now and found new pleasure, new nuances. PLEASE get Thunderhead and Greengrass of Wyoming, the sequels. I volunteer to read them aloud!

classic story

I loved this book though it had a slow start. It was worth getting through that.

My Friend Flicka

I liked all the detail, it creates very vivid images in your mind.
It is a good book that I would recommend to preteen reader/listeners

Childhood and Adult favorite.

I haven't listened to many books on tape, so I had wished there to be a female to read the woman's lines but besides that, it was wonderful to listen to a story I hadn't heard since childhood. it's just as good as I remember. :)

Great story for a trip to Laramie WY.

This is a VERY long book. But Wyoming is a VERY big state. We enjoyed listening between stops.

Better Than I Remember

Read as a child, reread as an adult! What a contrast in takes from the horse lover I have been since little and hobby farmer/parent I am now. A great book to listen and read along WITH your horse loving children!
