Feeling the earth beneath their feet?As the pair uses their senses to experience the world around them during the day, the shadows grow longer, the sky darker, and the parent horse reassures the foal, “Don’t be afraid, Little Horse. I will hold you and love you.”In this stunningly illustrated and lyrically told story, Gianna Marino poignantly captures a parent’s love for their child.
