Perfect Imperfections

Perfect Imperfections Review



Elegant foil-stamped softcover edition.

Set in the high Cascades of the Pacific Northwest among lush green farmland and beautiful--but--scary mountain trails, this is the entertaining true story of a girl and her quirky horse.

A young girl's life is suddenly turned upside-down through divorce, leaving her with the gift of two full-time fathers and an impossible dream. Then the impossible comes true--

Life with her new horse--a big, lovable, paint--is anything but smooth sailing. Fun it is, but misadventures abound for two families, three horses and one over-confident fourteen-year-old girl whose good intentions often go awry.

As our heroine learns to take challenging situations and make something wonderful out of them she dicovers life isn't perfect, and neither are people--or horses!

Forget your worries and treat yourself to hearty laughter--animal therapy is truly the best medicine.

Readers say . . . lighthearted entertainment for the whole family, a read-out-loud kind of story . . . a perfect gift to brighten someone's day.
