- Synopsis
- AWARD-WINNING and BEST-SELLING AUTHOR Kay Kline, retired first-grade teacher, "A fun chapter book with just enough magic and reality. Adults will enjoy it too!” Vie Herlocker, author and editor, “Funny...entertaining... Éclair resembles a modern-day Junie B. Jones. “Kid-friendly… page-turning fun… adventure with real-life challenges,” said Crystal Bowman, best-selling children’s book author and speaker. Eccentric Grandma Stella is taking in boarders. Not the kind that talk, but the kind that neigh. Horses. When seven-year-old Éclair meets the first boarder and its owner, a girl Éclair’s age who’s dressed like a gypsy, the girl says her horse can read minds and will cast a spell on Éclair. Does the horse really have magic? If so, maybe the horse could make Éclair’s secret wish come true. READERS FAVORITE 5 STARS***** In Eclair Meets a Gypsy by Michelle Weidenbenner, Éclair is a seven-year-old girl spending the summer with her grandmother while her mother is in the hospital and her father is away at another job. While Grandma is a little kooky, she provides a stable and loving home. The premise of this delightful story is plausible to me, even if the magic is internal rather than emanating from a horse. The author does an excellent job in creating the context for the story so that the reader understands the difficulties Éclair is facing. --Charles Ashbacher
