*** Winner, Best International Young Adult Book at the EQUUS Film Festival 2024 - The Galway Connemara  ***Lir, a grey Connemara pony is born during a storm, beside the Atlantic in Co. Galway. Lir’s early years are filled with laughter and freedom, playing with his friends under the watchful eye of his beloved Nana. But at three years of age when he is sold by his owner, everything changes. Lir tells the story of his life in his own words, through the many chapters of his life - from showjumping, eventing and dressage yards to riding stables and family homes all around Ireland. He experiences love and kindness but also cruelty and hard times. Will this brave Connemara pony ever find a forever home where he is loved and cared for? Join Lir on his remarkable journey across Ireland. ++++++++++++++++++'The Galway Connemara' is a remarkable account of modern day horse training knowledge and practices. Through Lir’s eyes, readers learn the importance of treating animals with empathy, kindness and respect. Join Lir as he navigates the ups and downs of his life, making friends, learning lessons, and always searching for that one place where he truly belongs. This book is a must-read for readers aged 12 and above, their parents, all horse owners and riders. Elaine Heney is the #1 best-selling author, award-winning film-maker, director of Grey Pony Films, and creator of the ’Listening to the Horse™’ documentary.
