Greta's Goes on Holiday
Children & Young Adult, Children's Books, Children's Books Age 6+, Children's Books Friends / Family
The main thing is that there’s horses. Nothing else really matters to Greta. The lakeside hotel has a lovely mountain view, is child-friendly and offers riding lessons as well as a beach. It sounds great - it is great! But it’s far from perfect; the hotel has seen better days, and so has the solitary old horse. It’s just as well there’s a whole gang of children there for fun, games, dares and getting up to all sorts of mischief. Every day Greta sends texts and emails to her friend Nina, keeping her up to date as she promised - and Nina’s sure to be amazed when she reads all about Greta’s holiday escapades…
• For reading aloud and on your own
• A girl, a horse and a holiday! Who could ask for more?
