This is a beautiful book. Great gift! or for collectors! I have also listed 2 other great American girl gift books, Meet Molly and Meet Samantha. This is the first of 6 books about Felicity Merriman, a spunky, sprite 9 year girl who lived in Williamsburg, Virginia in 1774, just before the revolutionary War. She grows impatient doing sitting doing kinds of thing like tea etiquette class, handwriting and embroidering samplers expected in a girl of that time. Felicity is excited to find a beautiful new horse in town, but it is owned by Jiggy Nye, the cruel tanner who beats his horses. Felicity who has copper colored hair sneaks off to meet the new horse who shares her hair color and falls in love with Penny. When Penny's life is in danger Felicity knows she must help.
