Sofia's Choice

Beschreibung

A tale of tough choices, true friendship, and the courage to follow your heart. As autumn leaves paint the landscape, 11-year-old Sofia faces a crossroads. An opportunity to visit Acadia National Park presents a thrilling chance to explore the carriage trails with her horse, Sundance. Her mother's boyfriend invites her to bring a friend to ride his sister's horse. The catch? Sofia must choose between her best friends, Olivia and Anika. While Sofia wrestles with a decision she fears will jeopardize her friendships, the reappearance of her estranged father and the prospect of becoming a big sister further complicates her already tumultuous world. Will she find the strength to forge her own path, or will the expectations of others hold her back? Readers of all ages will be captivated by Sofia's journey of self-discovery, the powerful bonds of friendship and family, and the joy of finding one's place in an ever-changing world.

Autor

Multi-award-winning author and lifelong horse enthusiast, Laura Holt-Haslam, writes realistic middle grade fiction that inspires readers of all ages. While horses feature prominently, the heart of her writing revolves around the human characters as they navigate life in less-than-perfect families, learn how to make and be friends, overcome challenges that stand in the way of their dreams, and discover the healing power of love and forgiveness. Laura is passionate about sharing her love of horses through art, writing, and hands-on learning. For over thirty-five years, she has taught basic horsemanship and mentored hundreds of children and teens, encouraging them not only to become more confident equestrians, but more compassionate people. Laura is the mother of two young adult children. She lives in Southern Maine with her husband, two adorably naughty cats, and the friendliest dog you'll ever meet. She and her daughter share ownership of Max, a 27-year-old palomino miniature horse who loves to jump. Learn more about Laura and her books, and Max and his friends at https://lauraholthaslam.com/.
