Join a wild colt on Assateague Island as he follows his herd and experiences his wetland environment. Light, rhyming verses and beautiful oil paintings lead you through sights and sounds the wild colt experiences as he runs along the ocean, bucks and kicks, chases mosquitoes, and eyes turtles and deer at the water hole. This picture book introduces the true life of a wild colt, from his coastal habitat where he is surrounded by colorful bird life to being rounded up for the famous wild pony auction at Pony Penning on Chincoteague Island. Educators can bring the wild colt experience into the classroom with the included wildlife identification guide, discussion topics, and facts about wetlands. Families will treasure this charming story for bedtime reading. Grades pre-K to 4
