Paint the Wind by Pam Muñoz Ryan is a middle-grade novel about a young girl named Maya, who has lived a sheltered and strict life with her grandmother after the death of her parents. When circumstances force her to move to Wyoming to stay with her mother’s side of the family—horse-loving relatives she’s never met—Maya’s world changes completely. She learns about her mother’s past, discovers a love for horses, and forms a special bond with a wild mustang named Artemisia. Through her journey, Maya finds courage, freedom, and a sense of belonging. This heartfelt novel, part of the Scholastic Gold collection, blends adventure, self-discovery, and the powerful connection between humans and horses.
