Lilly's Ride - Sarah Hawkes Valente - Bog

As a child, Andrew Montoya spent his summers in the untamed mountains of Northern New Mexico. Now he raises his three children there. As he looks forward to his children's futures, he writes stories that embody a father's heart-adventure seeking and full of love. Set in the same high desert that the author calls home, Lilly's Ride is the heart-warming tale of a young girl's path to strength, conviction, and self-discovery. Lilly's journey from childhood to womanhood is an unconventional pilgrimage aided by her faithful horse and an unlikely benefactor. Growing up without a mother isn't easy, but with the help of her father and family, and the two best friends a girl could ever have, Lilly will find a way that is wholly and uniquely her own.
