Marguerite Henry's beloved story of a wild horse's gentle colt - winner of a Newbery Honor!
On the island of Chincoteague off the coasts of Virginia and Maryland lives a centuries-old band of wild ponies. Among them is the most mysterious of all: Phantom, a rarely-seen mare that eludes all efforts to capture her - that is until a young boy and girl lay eyes on her and determine that they can't live without her.
