Jumping Beany

Author: June CrebbinIllustrator: David Roberts

The rivalry that exists among children can often get pretty intense, and riding schools are no exception. In Jumping Beany Crebbin catches the feelings and concerns of a group of children who are fast approaching the pony day at their riding school. Will Amber, our heroine, get to ride her favourite pony Beany, or will she arrive too late? And what will her arch rival Donna do to get her own way? And as if that is not enough, will Amber’s Dad, who has finally promised to attend the Pony Day, manage to get there on time? The anxieties that children experience will be easily identified and sympathised with by anyone reading this book.
