Meadow Muffin (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781682133224)

Meadow Muffin is the story of a foal, whose mother, Moondancer, becomes ill and can no longer care for her. A close friend on the farm, Nanny, and her family help Meadow Muffin and her father, Skywalker deal with the difficult times. With the guidance and help of family and friends in the barn, Meadow Muffin is given a strong and loving start in life. This story is my attempt to explain the real life experience of a little girl whose mother became ill and was unable to care for her. Her divorced father had custody of her, and his new lady had become her surrogate mother. She arranged all the care the girl needed at that time in her life. When the little girl asked one day if the woman was her "new mommy," the woman, not wanting to act as if she was replacing her real mother, wisely answered, "No, but I would like to be your new friend." To me, the little girl's question is important in explaining how new relationships begin and how the little girl (Meadow Muffin) viewed her surrogate mother (Nanny).
