Summary

A One-Eyed Horse in a One-Horse Town is the magical, heartfelt true story of how a blind horse begins to see clearly. With a few neighs and a lot of horsing around, children's author Julie Harris tells the tale of a horse she once owned not so many years ago, whose name was Smokey. In this story, Smokey is the prized, hoofed pal of a mother and her sandy-haired son who will stop at nothing to ensure that Smokey's got all he needs to lead a good life. They worry about Smokey's cloudy eyesight, but the thing is, Smokey doesn't know he's blind - nor does he care. There's a terrifically nosy and altogether persnickety neighbor who proves to be a thorn in the family's side, but nothing gets in the way of Smokey proving to the townsfolk that with a song in one's heart, life is rewarding - and that's something no one can take away.
