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 & Illustrators

There is now information on well over 700 authors and illustrators on the site.  They’re divided into sections according to where the author is from, but there is also a Master Index including everybody and everything on the site.
