Horse Girl by Carrie Seim is a humorous and heartfelt middle-grade novel about Wills, a 12-year-old girl who is obsessed with horses but feels out of place in her new equestrian community. After moving to a new town, she finally gets the chance to take riding lessons at the prestigious Oakwood Riding Academy. However, fitting in isn’t easy—she doesn’t have the fancy gear, the other girls seem like mean “Horse Barbies,” and her riding skills aren’t quite up to par.
Determined to prove herself, Wills faces challenges both in and out of the saddle, including a horse who doesn’t always cooperate and rival riders who try to undermine her. With perseverance, humor, and the help of a few unexpected friends, she discovers what it truly means to be a “horse girl.”
Blending comedy, adventure, and an authentic love for horses, Horse Girl is a fun and relatable read for young equestrians and anyone who has ever felt like an outsider.
