Marguerite, Misty and Me

Susan Friedland, a Marguerite Henry fangirl turned historian, learned to ride in the same horsey community where the Misty of Chincoteague author and her famous pony lived decades earlier. After re-reading Misty as an adult, Susan launches a personal quest to find people, places, papers and ponies to reveal the backstory of Misty and the life of Marguerite Henry. Enjoy this Marguerite Henry biography that will take you to the shores of Chincoteague Island and help you revel in horsey nostalgia.
