Pony Books

Pony books have their detractors, but as the ever-increasing traffic to this site proves, they have an awful lot of fans. I read everything I could get my hands on as a child; suitable and unsuitable; pony books and things without a single animal anywhere. I still feel bereft if I do not have a book on the go, and I still read pony books. My bookshelves have a section filled with pony paperbacks which are falling apart, and they are one of the parts of my childhood I cannot part with.

Authors
Since this site started in 2005, I have added information on many pony book authors. You will find biographical information and illustrated bibliographies, as well as articles and interviews with authors like Caroline Akrill and Josephine Pullein-Thompson.

Sales
I usually have around 300 titles in stock, ranging from the lovely Country Life titles of the 1930s to today’s Heartland. My main sales are made through my catalogues, which are loaded up here on the website before I put the books onto the bookselling databases (Ibooknet, Abe and Amazon). If you are on my mailing list, you will get advance notification of when the catalogue will be going live. To join the mailing list, click here. I never share or sell my mailing list with anyone else, and you can of course remove yourself from the list whenever you wish.

To look at the rest of my pony book and horse stock, please click here. This will take you to my section on Abebooks. You can order securely via this site and the order will be sent to me.

I also sell new books, published by Fidra Books and Girls Gone By. These you can buy directly from this website: here. Currently, Monica Edwards’ works are being re-printed, as are Joanna Cannan’s: K M Peyton, Josephine Pullein-Thompson, Primrose Cumming and Ruby Ferguson are also being re-printed, or are due to be.
