    "Penelope the Shetland Pony" is a heartwarming nursery rhyme about six-year-old Bonny from Heyshott, Sussex, who discovers a neglected black Shetland pony with a beautiful silver mane abandoned in a field. The poor pony is thin, hungry, and alone, having been left behind by her previous owner who considered her too much trouble. 
    Moved by compassion, Bonny convinces her loving parents to help rescue the pony, whom she names Penelope. The family takes Penelope home, providing her with a warm stable, fresh food, and most importantly, abundant love and care. Under Bonny's devoted attention, Penelope gradually transforms from a sad, neglected creature into a healthy, beautiful, and spirited pony. 
    As their bond deepens, Bonny learns to ride Penelope, and they discover the pony has a natural talent for jumping. Together, they practice diligently, starting with small logs and progressing to proper hurdles. Their partnership grows stronger with each training session, built on trust, patience, and mutual affection. 
    The story reaches its climax at the local village gymkhana, where Bonny and Penelope compete in the jumping competition. Despite facing experienced riders and larger ponies, their perfect partnership shines through. They complete a flawless round, jumping every hurdle without fault, and win the coveted gold rosette. 
    The tale concludes with Bonny and Penelope living happily ever after, their fame spreading throughout the countryside. However, their greatest treasure remains their unbreakable friendship, demonstrating that love, kindness, and compassion can transform lives and create the most precious bonds.

    Henry the Hidden Hero didn’t always see himself as brave or special. In fact, he often felt small and unsure, with feelings he didn’t quite. Everything changed when Henry met Willy (Wings of Willy Series) ~ a wise butterfly who taught him how to recognize, name, and feel his emotions, and how to use his voice to share what was in his heart. 
    With gentle guidance, Willy showed Henry words like “I can” and “I feel”, and helped him see that speaking his truth brings real power. Together they laughed, cried, and discovered the strength that comes from honesty. And as Henry’s wings began to open wide, so did his courage. “I do have a voice! I do have a way! And maybe I’m meant to help others someday.” 
    Now, Henry is on a mission to do just that. In this heartwarming story, Henry flies from place to place ~ helping a firefly, caterpillar, grasshopper, bumblebee, and ladybug discover their voices, unfold their wings, and shine their light. Through magical adventures and gentle lessons, Henry teaches that true strength begins with knowing ourselves and trusting what’s inside. 
    Let this book spark your own journey! 
    Join Henry’s mission. Help ignite the light in one another. The world shines brighter when we lift each other up.
