I have been reading this book called Blind Beauty, It is
about a horse basically.
The story so far goes like this...
There is this man called Declan, he has a daughter called
Tessa, anyway they have a mare with a famous bloodline and they wanted to keep
the bloodline but to do that they had to put her into foal, as the mare was so
old, when she eventually had the foal it was born with no eyes, just empty
sockets, the foal was also very ugly and not something anyone would expect to
be a racehorse.
The day after shiner (foal) was born, Tessa went and sat
with shiner, and instantly they bonded.
Once shiner had found his feet and was in his paddock,
tessa would run and shiner would follow her the bond was so strong they were
inseprable.
But the worst thing happened... tessa being so young had
to move away to live somewhere else with her mother...
Her mother remarried a rich man and they sent tessa to
boarding schools after boarding schools she would keep getting herself kicked
out because of her behaviour, they also wouldnt get her a horse, so as she was
at the age to get like a weekend job her parents sent her to work and a
racehorse training stables, they had all the great famous racehorses trained
there, they gave her the job of stable hand.
One day this ugly
horse turned up, the owner wanted them to train this horse for the big races,
They gave this horse to tessa to look after and she made
him all shiny and look amazing just like all the other horses.
Couple months later tessas mother found a boarding school
for her, and eventually she got kicked out of this school, but by the time she
could go back to the stables, they had already got another groom....
I hope that they eventually get baffon (the horse that was called shiner, when it was a foal) to the race track.
