About the Book


​Change can be difficult, especially for Savanna. When she gets a new trainer at a new barn, she can't help thinking about how much she'll miss Colts & Company. More than that...she's a little scared. What will happen when Savanna swallows her fear and takes a chance on Happenstance Farms?

A fun, relatable story about a girl and her pony, your child will love keeping up with the adventures at Happenstance Farms. With charming characters, lots of laughs, and social-emotional learning, this book is the perfect addition to any home or classroom library.

 

My Review

Excellent Book For Children Facing New Experiences. Change is challenging--and a little scary sometimes--no matter your age. Readers will love Savanna and her story as she worries a bit about changing to a new riding teacher and a new farm away from her old friends and familiar surroundings. The author gives readers a wonderful book for children facing new places or situations of their own with lovely illustrations and relatable pages.​

 

Happenstance Farms: A New Home is Perfect for Animal Lovers. Savanna loves her horse--and makes a new friend in farm puppy Eli. This book is the perfect reminder of the bonds between humans and animals, especially when fearful or worried about an upcoming change. 

 

Would I Recommend Happenstance Farms: A New Home by S. McMichael? The author introduces readers to the Happenstance Farms series and characters in this book--and it is a perfect blend of setting and characters to create future relatable life lessons for children and families to enjoy. I definitely recommend the book to families with children facing fears or worries about a new school or new activities--or for horse and animal lovers seeking a simple story with a positive message.
