<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Good old Charlie is a big, strong horse who loves to do his share of the work on Tulip Hill Farm. On his 28th birthday, Charlie's owner decides that Charlie should take a well-deserved rest. Charlie, however, is not quite ready for retirement! Full color.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>Charlie's not old! So what if he's 28 and most <i>people</i> consider that a little old for a horse. When his rheumatism isn't acting up, he's as frisky as any young colt. And he's certainly not ready for retirement. Charlie can tackle any tough job that comes his way. <br> Unfortunately, Mr. Spinks, Charlie's owner, doesn't quite agree. So he makes Charlie take a permanent, though well-deserved, vacation. Poor Charlie is bored to death! <br> But then Charlie discovers there is something he can do. Maybe retirement isn't so boring after all!?!<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br>Marguerite Henry was the beloved author of such classic horse stories as <i>King of the Wind</i>;<i> Misty of Chincoteague</i>; and <i>Stormy, Misty's Foal</i>, all of which are available in Aladdin paperback editions. <p/>Wesley Dennis was best known for his illustrations in collaboration with author Marguerite Henry.
