Description
At the heart of this beloved tale is a young girl's unwavering determination to succeed in the face of adversity. Velvet Brown's unrelenting passion for riding is matched only by her humble beginnings, yet she finds a way to overcome her physical limitations and achieve the impossible.
With the help of her trusty mount, a rough-around-the-edges country horse, Velvet sets her sights on the prestigious Grand National steeplechase. As she trains and prepares for the big day, her unique bond with her horse becomes a powerful symbol of their shared dreams and aspirations.
This charming new edition of National Velvet features the original drawings by Laurion Jones, the author's thirteen-year-old daughter, adding a touch of nostalgia and whimsy to this timeless story of grit, perseverance, and the power of following one's heart.
