Tony was all white,
large, sturdy,
with wide gentle eyes
and a ton of love . . .

it was early in the morning
around three a.m.,
but I was up, and would
go out and pat Tony with
my gentle arms, and
his head would bow down

A touching tale of a boy and a horse, by the late poet Ed Galing and illustrated with remarkable tenderness by Caldecott-winning artist Erin Stead.

Industry Reviews

Astonishing.--Kirkus Reviews, starred review

The tenderness of his words ("Tony was all white, / large, sturdy, / with wide gentle eyes/ and a ton of love"), combined with Stead's exquisite portraits, allows readers entry into the world shared by boy and horse.--Publishers Weekly, starred review

The muted pencil drawings are gorgeous and soft, a comfort simply to view. The gray and aqua coloring puts readers in predawn's light, with the yellow highlights perfectly yielding a sense of warmth. The illustrations and text work together perfectly, conveying a story for readers of all ages.--School Library Journal

A lovely tribute to a bygone service, especially for equine fans.--Booklist
