Orange Horse is on the hunt for his long-lost brother. The only clue he has is half of a photograph
of an orange horse that looked just like him.
Certainly there is another orange horse somewhere in the world looking
for him as well? In an effort to find his brother, Orange Horse posts several
ads in a newspaper. “If you are orange
and are missing half an old photograph, please come meet me.” Creative and
interesting characters come to meet Orange Horse, but none are his long-lost
brother. Will Orange Horse ever find him? The ending of this adorable story helps
readers understand that families come in all kinds of sizes and types. Love of friends is often as strong as family bonds.
We love this book! The creative
characters who answer the newspaper ad are such a fun surprise! A teacher could use The Orange Horse as a springboard for creative guesses and fun artwork. The ending of the book is heartwarming and
very sweet. The Orange Horse would make a perfect gift for a sweet friend.
