About this listen

Emily Arnold McCully won a Caldecott Medal for her book Mirette on the High Wire. In Wonder Horse, McCully crafts a charming tale based on the true story of Doc Key and his remarkable horse, Jim. When Doc Key decides to breed a racehorse, what he gets is a foal with weak legs yet an unusually sharp mind. So Doc decides to teach his horse some new tricks - including reading and writing.

Wasn’t the best book ever

It is a short and boring book I don’t recommend this. Why I put the performance 5 star is because the voice was amazing the story not so much. That’s it
