A funny, feel-good diary-style book for readers aged 9 - 12. Perfect for fans of Lottie Brooks, Dork Diaries, and Clare Balding's The Racehorse Who... series.
Izzy's week was supposed to be boring. Just her, her eccentric granny, and a car boot sale full of broken biscuit tins and dodgy ornaments.
But then Granny buys her a scruffy old hobby horse named Luna, and things take a very unexpected turn.
Suddenly, Izzy finds herself:
- Entered in a local show jumping competition (without agreeing)
- Trying to survive school while carrying a horse head on a stick
- Making new friends, facing down mean girls, and sort-of-accidentally discovering Luna might be a bit magical
Packed with heart, hilarity, homemade jumps, and a very determined eleven-year-old, The Hobby Horse Diaries is a story about trying new things, being brave (even when you'd rather hide), and how winning isn't always what matters most.
Perfect for readers who love:
- Strong but awkward female leads
- Friendship, family, and funny fails
- Horses, hobbies, and heart
