Join Stormy Normy in Book 3 as he faces a brand-new challenge - learning the sport of reining! While he's proven he can ride 160 kilometres in a day, Stormy Normy soon discovers that reining is a whole different adventure. It's all about mastering tricky moves and the basics before the real fun begins!
With help from his new trainer, Stormy Normy works hard to get the hang of this technical sport. Charlie, his owner, has set big goals for them to compete at the National reining Show in Tamworth, New South Wales. But to get there, Stormy Normy has to step out of his comfort zone and learn that real growth comes when you push yourself.
Just when things are going well, a health problem slows down their training. Now, Stormy Normy must focus on more than just competing - he's also got to be a great role model to his new siblings, Johnny and Tuxedo. Will Stormy Normy adjust to these new changes and make it to Nationals?
Find out in this exciting new adventure with everyone's favourite brumby colt!
A wonderful blend of perseverance and life lessons, Book Three in The Adventures of Stormy Normy will delight early readers. Written by children's author and horse enthusiast, Leisa Fail, with charming black and white illustrations by Amy Rennie.
PRAISE FOR THE ADVENTURES OF STORMY NORMY
'I have read both books in the Stormy Normy series, and no matter your age, I'm sure you'll enjoy them! These stories beautifully highlight the importance of setting goals, building trust and staying loyal. They also remind us that success, whether in life or with horses, comes from preparation, self-discovery and dedication. A wonderful read for all!' Pauline
'Our little hero is forced to navigate the challenges of life from facing abandonment to overcoming bullying and what makes him unique. It's an inspiring adventure that is not just about a colt finding his forever home, but is also about the universal lessons of resilience, self discovery and the importance of being true to yourself.' Glenda Fordham for The Rider
'This tale not only captivates with its narrative but also subtly imparts valuable life lessons. It teaches children self-acceptance and coping with bullies and stress by using the power of positive self-talk and distracting from their problems with self-questioning and breathing techniques. As a child who suffered bullying during high school, I wish I had a human version of Jacqueline, the wise old mare in this story, to give me this advice. I look forward to seeing Stormy Normy's tale continue.' Amazon Review, Vikstar
'I read your book and loved it!!! Brought a tear or 100 to my eye. It's very relatable as the techniques for anxiety and stress are exactly what I was taught to do. I'm sad I finished it and can't wait for the next one! Congratulations on such an achievement and now I'm craving a big stormy cuddle!' Johanna
'Lovely story, and messages came through loud and clear. It's a great way to teach kids how to deal with bullying! Loved it. Looking forward to the next one.' Trish
'Stormy Normy, kept the reader engaged through the chapters. Was well written and structured throughout the book. Good illustrations. Enjoyed reading the first instalment. Great work, Leisa.' Jamie
