Dinky stole a part of my soul!

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

I would highly recommend this book for children. Dinky's Quest: The Journey Begins by Marta Moran Bishop is a fascinating story about a small unfortunate foal which was taken away from his mother in the first hours of his birth. In her book, talented Marta Moran Bishop tells the real story of her life through the eyes of a foal.

Thoughts and emotions of Dinky, described by Marta's words are amazing in their simplicity and originality. I am absolutely sure that if Dinky could speak he would not have said it better than Marta. Listening to Dinky, I understood that Marta is very unusual and extraordinary woman who like no other can understand the thoughts and feelings of horses. Moreover, she can speak horse!

After going through all the torments of hell, miserable little Dinky finally finds his home and family in the faces of Marta, Ken, Chrome and Connella. Dinky, Chrome and Connella created their own small herd.

What was one of the most memorable moments of Dinky's Quest: The Journey Begins?

When he finally finds his new home and family. It makes him happy.

Have you listened to any of Debra Oranzi’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

Yes, I listened to her performance in Wee Three. I love Debra's performance, it fits well with the book.

If you were to make a film of this book, what would the tag line be?

DINKY: THE NURSE MARE FOAL

Any additional comments?

I loved this audio book and would highly recommend it to parents for their children.
