BOOK: The quicksand pony by Lester

[Frederick Muller <fmuller@TELLURIAN.NET>]

Lester, Alison._The quicksand pony_,1998
The story opens with a young women and her baby running away
after the death of the husband/father.  It then continues about 9
years later with the people of the town she ran away from.  They go
out to gather their cattle and come across a 9 year old boy.  He is
the baby and the mother has since died in the wilderness.  This
story has many beautifully written parts unfortunately it needs to be
filled out.  It is wonderful outline for a more complete book.  The
reader needs to know more about the young lady and boy's life in
the wilderness.  The years of the town also need to be fuller.
Hopefully the author of this 136 page book will write another book --
she has a great deal of potential.
