5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent historical fiction for kids, July 24, 2007. Amazon Review By Katrina Elizabeth "Kat" (Van Alstyne. Texas)
This review is from: Meet Felicity (The American Girls Collection, Book 1) (Paperback)
In this book you meet Felicity Merriman who is a bright, funny girl living in the year 1774.
Felicity is quite bored with her routine; sewing, cooking, learning how to be a proper young lady, etc.
One day she sees a horse playing out in the pasture. She quickly becomes friends with it, and names it Penny. Later she finds out that the horse belongs to a cruel man named Jiggy Nye who has spent time in jail for animal cruelty.
Felicity knows the horse isn't hers, but that doesn't stop her from riding it one day. Jiggy Nye sees her, and tells her that anyone who can ride her may have her. Felicity then hatches a plan to steal the horse, which then backfires.
As this is a childrens book, everything does turn out ok in the end.
