Overview

In a cozy horse stall, at Waterdam Farm, Lady Thistle takes her first breath and sniffs the air of her new surroundings. The first day of a foal's life is busy as she learns to stand on very wobbly legs and drink her mother's milk. But exciting sounds-of nearby horses, the farm dog, and cats outside the barn-keep her ears occupied and Lady Thistle isn't focused on eating. Polly knows her tiny filly needs to nurse and get the nutrients she needs...but she's just so distracted! The farm family and the veterinarian are attentive and offer a helping hand to ensure Lady Thistle starts off on the right hoof. Based on a true story, this is the second book in The Lady Thistle series.
