Rocking Horse War


“The triplets and the rocking horses had disappeared together. But had the triplets taken the horses? Or had the horses taken the triplets?”

 

Pearl can’t believe that she is following the hoofprints of galloping wooden horses. But her day in the moors and mountains of Perthshire just keeps getting stranger and more dangerous, as she searches for her missing brother and sisters. She has to deal with rocks which don’t stay still, magic which everyone but her seems to be able to use, and a very irritating boy who might be able to help, or might be the cause of all her problems.

I had a fantastic time writing this book, partly because I loved writing about mountains and cliffs, but also because one of the characters tried to take over the story and change the ending, which made it much more exciting to write!
