Books like Snowy by Berlie Doherty


When the other children at school bring their pets to class, Rachel is left out because she can't bring in her horse that pulls the barge on which she lives. This causes her to feel isolated and excluded. However, the day of the annual fair, a storm brings the school gates shut and the children are forced to stay inside. Rachel, with the help of her horse, manages to sneak out of the school and onto the barge where she can display her horse to the other children. As the children and adults admire her horse, Rachel realizes that her horse is a show horse and not a working horse. The story ends with the children learning the importance of accepting others and showing love and kindness to those who don't have the same resources as them.
