The strength of Isla and Pickle's special friendship shines from every page.<br /> Our copy was missing when I went to write this, and had to be fished out from its hiding place under a sleeping small person's pillow -- in this house, that's the best review a book can get!'<br /> - Roaring Reads</p> <p>Praise for the <em>Isla and Pickle</em> series: </p> <p>'Upbeat, cheerful, and just right for those who enjoy a good pony story (or dream of having a horse of their own). Colorful illustrations with plenty of background detail show little Pickle to be the kind of slightly mischievous pony that would make a good pal. Isla, meanwhile, decked out in a cable-knit sweater and plaid boots, is just determined and resourceful enough to deserve him.'<br /> - Booklist</p> <p>This is a delightful story about friendship and enjoying life - messy or not! The illustrations are delightful and packed full of humour and you are bound to fall in love with little Pickle and his loyal friend Isla.
