Everyone has heard tales of men who have gone there and never come back. Yet one day young Pat Conroy and his friend Danny MacDonagh head off anyway, telling their parents that they are fishing for eels. On the island they find no ghosts but many mysteries, including a beautiful—and tame—black colt. But when they return home, with the colt in tow, they find themselves launched into a world of trouble. Before their adventure is over, the boys must brave rough seas and the murderous duplicity of a conniving horse trader, with only the advice of Pat's frail grandmother and their own good sense to guide them.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA loving, clear-eyed portrait of rural Irish life, \u003cspan class=\"a-text-italic\"\u003eThe Island of Horses\u003c\/span\u003e is fraught with suspense and peopled with unforgettable individuals.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan class=\"a-text-bold\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAn Irish Independent collection - Number 18 - Great Children's Books\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease note this is a second-hand book. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFormat: Hardback\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition: Good used condition. \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tales for Tadpoles","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50026651812183,"sku":null,"price":5.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0654\/5757\/files\/marita-colon-mckenna-under-the-hawthorn-tree-great-childrens-books-20-second-hand-books-664258.jpg?v=1740057306","url":"https:\/\/talesfortadpoles.ie\/products\/eilis-dillon-island-horses","provider":"Tales for Tadpoles","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
