Shelby and the First Ride by Marty Kay Jones

Shelby and the First Ride (The Old Quarry Lake Farms Tales, #1)

Marty Kay Jones (Goodreads Author)

Release date: Nov 10, 2023

Shelby Simone is a horse-crazy kid living in the city with her parents. Despite having the best friends ever at the exclusive Metro School for Girls, Shelby Simone is a horse-crazy kid living in the city with her parents. Despite having the best friends ever at the exclusive Metro School for Girls, she can’t help but feel something is missing from her life.

When her parents break the news to her that they’re moving to a nearby rural community, Shelby is devastated… until her parents promise she can take riding lessons at Old Quarry Lake Farms, one of the best-known riding stables in the state! Shelby only has a month to say goodbye to city life and hello to a new world that includes horses.

After a rough start at Old Quarry Lake, Shelby starts to wonder if horses are really as wonderful as she imagined. As the summer days creep closer and closer to her first day at the Old Quarry Lake school, she worries if the trade-off was worth it.

Join a group of pre-teen girls who build a bond through their love of horses. Together, they tackle situations like moving to a new town, feeling different, and accepting themselves and each other just as they are—while sharing everyday adventures with their horses!

It was such a sweet, heartwarming story! Would definitely recommend it to anyone with a young daughter!” - Amy Buxman, mom.

“Shelby and the First Ride sucks you in from page one. Immediately you get a sense of who Shelby is and her struggles as an adolescent. When she and her family make a big move, you are transported to their new town and immersed in her first riding lessons. While dealing with being a little different, Shelby soon makes new friends and finds she IS a horse person. A very quick read and I was sad when the book suddenly ended. Looking forward very much to the next book in the series!”- Brittney Menzel, entrepreneur.“I was surprised at how much I enjoyed the book, even as a 34-year-old woman. I look forward to my daughter being a little older so that I can present these books to her. The writing was fantastic! It was detailed and vivid, and I could picture the storyline as if I were watching it live. Furthermore, the themes of this book are wonderful for the targeted audience. Self-esteem issues, family matters, saying goodbye to friends, making new friends, and achieving dreams are all things that pre-teen girls are faced with at their age, and I believe this book does a wonderful job at introducing these topics in a meaningful way!”- Shana Micheal, registered nurse, mom.
