Saddle Club Book 5: Trail Mates

Carole, Stevie, and Lisa, the three members of the Saddle Club, are totally devoted to horses - and to each other. But for Carole, it seems as if there's not much she can count on except riding and the friendship of the Saddle Club. Ever since her mother died, Carole has urged her dad to go out on dates. But now she's afraid that he's getting serious about a woman whom she isn't ready to think of as a stepmother. Meanwhile, Carole's getting the last thing she needs: unwanted attention from a boy. Scott will do anything - even muck out the stables - to get near her. And Stevie and Lisa aren't much help. They're busy modelling for a riding catalogue - and finding out that modelling's not all it's cracked up to be!

Reviews

The best of the books to date . . . remarkable

—— TES (Times Educational Supplement)

A wildly energetic and anarchic adventure involving kidnaps and scooter rides, with the children trying to outwit the evil or incompetent adults (not terribly difficult). Great fun for young readers

—— Daily Mail

One to read aloud

—— The Sunday Times

Funny, pacey adventure that blends a fairly kitchen sink set of family dynamics with some utterly zany fantasy. There is a big whiff of Roald Dahl anarchy about it . . . A crackling little story

—— thebookbag.co.uk

A funny, exciting read

—— Carousel
