"Empowering and vigorous, this is a story sure to please princess fans, horse fans and, yes, even tomboys."--"Kirkus Reviews
""This real princess s story is great and this book provides a positive and powerful story, especially for adolescent girl readers who choose to saddle up for the ride."--"VOYA Magazine
""Horse enthusiasts will devour Gregg s engaging novel about Jordanian Princess Haya Bint Al Hussein, inspired by the real-life princess who became an Olympic equestrian....Gregg s greatest strength is in detailing the deep, sensual bond that can form between a human and a horse, but the sympathetic protagonist and a setting rarely seen in middle-grade fiction make this an inspiring read for any reader."--"Publishers Weekly""
