The colt from old Regret
Wolfer, Dianne, 1961-2024
Book
"Tossing his mane, the Colt from old Regret tears through the scrub. Stones clatter and crimson rosellas shriek as he canters higher. You may have heard the story of the man from Snowy River and his fearless ride through the mountains. This is Colt's story, of nickering mares and a rearing stallion. What does Colt see, feel and smell as he charges through the bush? Will he escape the snapping stockwhips, to find shelter in an alpine meadow? Beloved children's author Dianne Wolfer responds to 'The Man from Snowy River', creating an essential companion to the original poem. With exquisite collages by Erica Wagner, this book is a new classic in the making."--Back cover.
