The first day of a foal's life is busy as she learns to stand on very wobbly legs and drink her mother's milk. But exciting sounds-of nearby horses, the farm dog, and cats outside the barn-keep her ears occupied and Lady Thistle isn't focused on eating. Polly knows her tiny filly needs to nurse and get the nutrients she needs...but she's just so distracted! The farm family and the veterinarian are attentive and offer a helping hand to ensure Lady Thistle starts off on the right hoof. Based on a true story, this is the second book in The Lady Thistle series.

Thistle Gets Hurt

Lady Thistle is two months old and has a big appetite for her growing body. In addition to nursing, she finally gets to eat grain and fresh hay with the other horses...and venture out into the pasture to nibble on sweet clover. She loves her new freedom of exploring and playing, but one day, while the horses are grazing, shrieks cause alarm. Lady Thistle finds danger in the field and is bleeding from a big gash on her leg. She has trouble walking and her mom, Polly, whinnies for help. Farm friends gather around-as the vet determines the best way to stitch the big wound-and eagerly wait to see if Lady Thistle will make a full recovery. Based on a true story, this is the fourth book in The Lady Thistle series.
