Allyson's Beau

By: Lois Vander Wende-Williams

Narrated by: Lisa Benson

Allyson’s Beau is a story about one young woman’s attempt to obtain a Disney movie type life. Allyson, married young, and with her new husband, set off to make all her dreams come true. After all, what did she have to lose? She immediately thrusts herself into the world of horses hoping to become someone special. As mere wishes meet concrete reality, “She didn't know what she feared more, riding Beau or arousing Barbara's anger."

She chooses a scrawny, uncoordinated, bay foal, who becomes her reason for continuing in the rough and rugged horse industry that is determined to wear her down. As desperation drives her dream, Allyson not only gathers a variety of friends and foes, but meets her true self in the process. Her colt, her Beau, is not the only love in her life, something she often forgets. Join Allyson and her Beau, and enter into the world of the Morgan Show Horse. Through her eyes, learn what it takes to make a dream become reality.
