by D. C. Rahe (Author)
Fourteen-year-old Michael Garcia doesn't fit in-not at school, not at home, and not anywhere except inside his own imagination. But everything changes when he visits Miller Farm and meets Thunder, a twenty-year-old Nez Perce stallion with a calm presence... and a startling secret.
Thunder speaks.
Not in riddles. To Michael's mind.
As the two form a life-changing bond, Michael is pulled into a world of wonder, responsibility, and hidden truths. With the support of loyal friends and the guidance of unexpected mentors, he begins confronting bullies, facing dangers on and off the farm, and discovering his own strength.
But when trouble arrives at Miller Farm-threatening Thunder, the stable, and the people Michael cares most about-he must decide whether to step up or step aside. Courage, heart, and destiny all ride on what he chooses.
Blending emotional realism with a touch of magic, The Horse's Mouth is perfect for readers who love stories about animals, found family, and young heroes who rise to challenges they never asked for. Inspiring, warm, and unforgettable, this is the book that will make you believe in impossible friendships and the quiet bravery inside us all.
Includes illustrations. (270 pages)
