Author/horse lover Susan Friedland was obsessed with Marguerite Henry’s Misty books when she was growing up.

In her book, “Marguerite, Misty and Me: a Horse Lover’s Hunt for the Hidden History of Marguerite Henry and her Chincoteague Pony,” she traces Henry’s life in Kane County, where the real Misty was stabled.

Books will be available for purchase and signing during this event at the  Gail Borden Public Library, which coincides with Women’s History Month. Please register.
