Haas, Jessie._Unbroken_,1999 [0-688-16260-6]
The story opens at the turn of the century with Harriet (called
Harry) being pulled from school saying her mother was in an
accident.  She eventually dies leaving Harry alone with her young
colt to be sent to a harsh aunt who lives up the hill on a farm.
Harry hates it there and her aunt.  She misses her friends and
school.  Eventually she begins to understand her aunt.  When her
mother's estate is settled, Harry will have enough money to
continue at her school but will need her horse to get there.  While
training her horse, Harry is injured and the aunt has to take her to
town to the doctor.  The aunt shows her love by making
arrangements for Harry to stay in town during the coming school
year.  This 185 page book is a touching story of a girl learning to
deal with the death of her mother and the realities of living with a
harsh aunt.  It is a story of understanding, love, and personal
growth.
