According to some of our most ancient tales, horses go beyond being beautiful, brave, strong, fast, and loyal. They also talk, they fly, they fight to protect their riders. These horses often have opinions of their own, and they¿re usually wiser than their human companions. They¿re magic! The works in this collection came from a variety of sources, all noted. The texts have been edited to replace obsolete words, simplify sentences, and clarify meaning¿without losing the voices of the original storytellers. Sixteen complete stories, charming illustrations, and four spreads on unicorns and other related creatures. The editor of this collection authored The Secret World of Unicorns. She has contributed to several volumes of retold myths and legends and two reference books on mythology.
