Summary:
"Lissa Bachner was born with a passion for horses and won her first blue ribbon at age 5. However, blindness struck her in her teens, and it threatened to end her passion for riding. It wasn't until Lissa met Milo, a filthy, emaciated, neglected, horse from Germany, that their instant bond cemented their domination in the jumping ring and their deep friendship outside the ring. As Lissa's eyesight worsened, Milo instinctively knew he had to be her eyes and protect her. This inspirational story of Lissa and 'Magic Milo' is one of going from victim to victor"-- Provided by publisher.
