Brave Old Blue

Author:  Colleen Muske 

After traveling down a winding road, a pickup truck pulling a trailer stops at a farm. When the trailer opens, an old horse steps out. Old Blue, alone, unsure, and trying hard to be brave, has arrived at a horse rescue farm. But what will happen here?

As it turns out, there is a warm greeting waiting for Old Blue. Friendly pats, fresh carrots, soft voices, and tender hands welcome the old horse. And there is a young girl, Bobby, who is eager to show Old Blue around. With the big blue sky high above rolling green hills and horses galloping through the pastures, Old Blue takes it all in.

It’s not easy letting down one’s guard, though, as past fears and disappointments are never far from the old horse’s thoughts. Will Bobby be able to comfort, soothe, and assure Old Blue that he has found his forever home?
