Again Fleming portrays animal rescue (this time an old dog from a shelter, in the last book, a horse from an abusive owner) in a non-preachy, heartwarming, empowering way. 7.

Lots of content involving horses and riding of interest to horse crazy kids. The first book was featured in Young Rider magazine (60,000 highly interested readers.)<BR> 9. Author Bryn Fleming is great at hosting events, available, and eager to do book promotion and school appearance sales. She has experience in speaking to groups and is social marketing savvy. Her fan base is spreading like wildfire.<BR> 10. First book CASSIE AND JASPER: received excellent review in Kirkus Reviews: “Set in an unspecified time uncluttered by cellphones and the Internet, this compassionate adventure plays out, its underlying theme of the value of education helping to change Cassie’s attitude. Paced at a smooth canter and tugging at the heartstrings, this slim tale is a call to action for middle-grade animal lovers.”<BR> 11. CASSIE AND JASPER garnered author interviews and stories, was a featured book during Children’s Book Week and on the Children’s Book Council website, started author’s new school visit tours, and author was featured at PNBA.
