I don't remember much about the plot of this book, but I remember the pictures showing the pony in various locales around the city. It was so charming, I read it over and over again.
Just looking at this cover takes me back to long afternoons I spent at the library, assisted by a grumpy but competent librarian. She must have dreaded my visits, where I asked for peculiar things like books on wolves, jumping horses, and sharks (this was in the sixties, pre-Jaws). I wonder why a little public library in Lafayette, Indiana would have A Horse Astray in Stockholm on its shelves.

Hey, I live in Lafayette. :)
ReplyDeleteIf I wasn't looking for books on old movies and movie stars, I was deep in the horse books section of our library. The bookmobile lady was so nice to me, too, when it was "our day" on her schedule.
ReplyDeleteI was on Crowfoot Drive in the 60s and 70s, close to Edgelea (sp?) school?
ReplyDeleteWe had very good library systems on both sides of the river!
