Blackjack: The Champion Morgan Horse, the seventh book in the Morgan Horse series, takes the reader to the exciting world of Morgan shows.
Blackjack has been winning blue ribbons at all the horse shows this season. His best friend and owner, Heather, feels the magic in the air and just knows that this is their year! She and Blackjack have qualified for the biggest competition out there: The Grand National & World Championship Morgan Horse Show. But with surprises around every turn—from a flock of bullying geese and a runaway horse at a truck stop; a thrilling ride on a barrel racing horse to an action-packed encounter with a swirling tornado—this amazing duo will need talent, skill, and more than a little luck to bring that trophy home.

This is a lovely series in which mid-grade readers are taught a sense of responsibility and appropriate risk-taking. The characters are loveable and their struggles to do the right thing are truly charming. It is obvious from the descriptive nature of the horse care routine that the author possesses deep knowledge of what she writes about. - Readers' Favorite
