At their local show in Dublin, twelve year old Mia and her Connemara pony, Mango, are surprised to see young horses being pushed hard in competitions. Disturbed by a conversation between two trainers about the jumping classes, Mia's unease grows. When she borrows an old book on horsemanship from a mysterious mobile library, Mia unexpectedly finds herself transported to the Manège des Tuileries in 18th-century Paris, where she meets the legendary horseman François de la Guérinière.
During her lesson, Mia learns about what ages horses physically mature at, and the importance of responsible training. Inspired, she and her friends Kate and Liam decide to enter the national school science competition with a project focused on horse's ages and training programs. But with backlash from powerful figures in the horse industry and sabotage at every turn, can Mia and her friends get to the finals?
Brimming with horse riding tips, fascinating equestrian history, and a touch of time travel magic, this exciting pony adventure is perfect for horse lovers aged 8 to 14 and is an ideal gift for birthdays and Christmas.
