Paint the Wind (Scholastic Gold)

By: Pam Muñoz Ryan

Narrated by: Kathleen McInerney

This epic horse story, in the tradition of BLACK STALLION, marks exciting new territory for one of our most treasured and celebrated novelists.

A sheltered girl. A wild horse. An unforgettable journey.

Maya lives like a captive. At Grandmother's house in California, everything is forbidden: friends, fun, even memories. And her life is built on lies: lies Grandmother tells her about her dead mother, lies Maya tells to impress or manipulate. But then she moves to the vast Wyoming wilderness where her mother's family awaits - kind, rugged people who have no tolerance for lies. They challenge Maya to confront the truth about who she is. And a mysterious mustang called Artemisia waits, too. She holds the key to Maya's freedom. But to find it, Maya will have to risk everything, including her life.

I love this story

This story is really interesting and exiting. I hope there is a number 2. That would be awesome. I love this book and I think you will too!

the story

the story was incredible, and the plot kept my horse loving daughter interested from start to end

Beautiful Heartfelt Story

As an equestrian I find this book sweet, charming, and surprisingly realistic for a horse book. Really good job on the narrative part, and very Wild West type story, for example, I say “canter” instead of lope. Very nice book overall.

Exhilarating and delightful adventure

I loved this book. I couldn't envision how I would enjoy a tale about a horse and its rider. But of course it was a Pam Munoz Ryan book. I have learned that every story she pens is endearing. And this story comes with amazing life lessons. I heartily recommend this to children and adults.
