This has got to be one of the oldest books I own. Published in 1955 the book itself is stitch bound which I am very impressed by. I talked my son into reading the story to me last night as his weekly reading assignment. The story is just as I remembered it from when I was very young, which says
The illustrations in this book are amazing. Pencil sketches depicting the horses, the barns, children and the meadows are very lifelike and could each be a frameable work of art.
To sum this all up here is what my son wrote about the book, keeping in mind he's 8 and not very fond of writing assignments :-)
"I read The Crooked Colt to my mom. It's really old it's from 1955. It's about a crooked colt that needs to get bigger and stronger to be less crooked and be as fast as the other colts." He got a check plus and I give this lovely story 5 stars.

Aww.../ Be brave, never give up, and one day you might become the strongest of all. Lovely pictures. Could be read as a picture-book or very early independent reader story.
