About the cover:
Move over, Longfellow. Here's a new poetic story of the night a boy and his horseshoer dad were called out to put winter shoes on a neighbor's gray work horse. When the boy gets to lend a hand, his eyes light up with the centuries-old magic of fire, steel, horse, and hammer.

There's even a description of ice nails!

"Winter Shoes for Shadow Horse" by Linda Oatman High is beautifully illustrated by Ted Lewin. Thanks to the publisher for loan of the art.

WINTER SHOES FOR SHADOW HORSE is available from Hoofcare Publishing for $16 plus $5 postage and handling ($10 outside USA).
