Follow on Google News | EXILES FROM THE MOOR by Pauline Morphy is publishedA moving children’s story about losing a parent and a girl’s love for horses
By: www.newgeneration-publishing.com Jess is an eleven-year- About the Author: Pauline Morphy describes herself in childhood as, "Belonging to the Thelwellian branch of the Pony Club." At the age of ten she parted company with a wildly bucking Dartmoor mare; she sustained severe concussion and a chronic obsession with native ponies of which she has owned four. In 1990 she became one of the founder members of Stour Valley Riding Club. She is a passionate supporter of animal welfare and royalties earned by this novel will be paid straight to World Horse Welfare. Excerpt from the book: “There was silence, then a scurrying noise as they urged their ponies into trot; their unrestrained laughter carried back to Jess with snatches of: "I'm not a hartebeest, I'm a gnu. G'no, g'no, g'no, I'm a gnu..." The song was one of many that Jess’s father used to sing to her when she was tiny. He made funny faces and they laughed together; now Jess couldn’t even smile. Marmalade, apparently unconcerned, ambled over and nudged her gently. Jess flung her arms around her neck, telling her she was the most wonderful and beautiful pony in the World and, not doubting her, Marmalade gave a long, satisfied sigh.” Exiles from the Moor is available in paperback from Amazon at: www.amazon.co.uk/ and from Barnes & Noble at: http://www.barnesandnoble.com/ This children’s story can also be downloaded in e-book format from: http://www.amazon.co.uk/ Press/Media Contact Details: New Generation Publishing Tel. 01234 712 064 E-mail: info@newgeneration- End
