"Clothed With Thunder" by Vicki Watson

About this book:

  “After sitting through a 4-H demonstration on the evolution of the horse, Rosie and Carrie are determined to present the arguments for creation at the club’s next meeting. The demonstration proves harder to put together than they imagined as everyone offers the girls their opinions. The lessons Rosie learns about creation extend into her life in surprising ways as she faces her old adversary, Billy King, who cheated her out of her first trophy with her pony, Scamper.”

My personal Rating-

This one had a much more serious matter with the debate about Creation vs evaluation and forgiving someone you don’t like. I’ve gone to many creation seminars, so it’s safe to say that I enjoying reading even more about that topic. The “Sonrise Stables” series is a great series for younger kids and it’s an easy, enjoyable read for older teens. I personally think it would be fine for girls and boys. Especially if they’re homeschooled…lots of Spiritual Content & Science in “Clothed with Thunder”! :)
