Firefly Finding Hope - Jodie Bowen

Firefly has it all. She is great at everything she does and she knows it! She is a champion show jumper until one day she has an accident that changes her life forever. She doesn't even know if she'll ever walk again. What is she going to do? Ready about the true story of a horse that finds the most happiness in the darkest time in her life. This wonderful and enlightening story opens us up to the world of Therapeutic Riding Centres. In a world where diversity, inclusion, and equity are so important, it's nice to know that equestrian centres specializing in therapeutic riding are available. Horses have a unique way of seeing us better than we see ourselves. Simply being around horses can help someone build communication skills, gain self-confidence, improve balance and coordination, and boost emotional well-being. At a therapeutic riding centre, you'll watch in awe as limitations and disabilities of all kinds fade away, and you'll see them replaced by abilities and accomplishments along with pure joy as horses are introduced to children and adults of all ages. Miracles become daily activities as life long friendships are made. Horses become heroes of the hearts they now hold. Dreams become reality as partnerships evolve. This book is written proudly for the horse: noble and kind, constant and present, selfless and giving. It is also for those of us who choose to include a horse in their world: how lucky are we to enjoy this incredible animal?
