| Everything That Shines |
| David Weale Illustrated by Dale McNevin |
This is the story of a very large horse, named Shekinah, and a
very small girl named Maddie. They lived on a farm with
Maddie's parents and her grandfather on a crooked little island
named Prince Edward.
Although Shekinah is old and Maddie is not yet four, the shine in
their eyes is the same. Maddie's grandfather notices this, as
through the seasons he watches the bond between girl and horse
grow stronger and stronger. One day, Shekinah performs an
amazing act of love for Maddie. And when the beloved horse
dies, it is the grandfather's turn to give Maddie an important gift:
the gift of understanding that Shekinah lives on, and can be seen,
in everything that shines.
So begins David Weale's magical tale about a girl and a horse,
and the powerful bonds of family and friendship. It's about
growing up and having those you love grow old and leave you.
And it's also about the wondrous light that shines in everything
when you love with all your heart, even after the one you love is
gone.
