Barney in Boots

Tails from Little Run Farm, Book One
By Ginny Russell

When Barney the pony's sore feet earn him big black therapeutic boots, the whole farm has something to say about it. Old Crow makes up a song, the hens cackle, and Barney hides in his stall until his best friend, a mini-donkey named Envy, finds his own ridiculous way to stand beside him.

A true story from a working farm on the Texas Gulf Coast, with a note for grown-ups explaining laminitis, and the therapeutic boots that treat it.
