Prince the Surprise Horse (Paperback)

Prince's Papa and Mama are famous race horses. Papa wants Prince to grow up and win trophies and ribbons, too, but he soon finds out that Prince is, well...different. Mama and Papa love Prince the way he is, but sadly, many of the other horses bully Prince because of his differences. Prince endures some hard times before he learns that the same things that make him different also make him very, very special. In a surprise ending, Prince finds happiness in using his unique qualities to bring happiness to others as well. Written by a former schoolteacher, Prince the surprise Horse's whimsical storytelling and delightful illustrations offer an engaging way to introduce the complex topics of bullying and self esteem to young audiences.
