By John Hefferman
Hefferman, John A Horse Called Elvis
Scholastic Australia, 2004
Right from the start, Elvis refused to be ignored. He pushed his way into our lives and made himself part of our family. Sometimes I think he was even more important than the rest of us.
A Horse Called Elvis is a story of a rural family living on a cattle property which is struggling for buisness. A foal is born and becomes a part of their family and the community, and becomes the lynchpin holding them together. A well told story about struggle while still having good entertainment value to it. You grow to love the characters, and although it is not a fast paced or action packed read it is still one that is hard to put down.
