Book Description: Here is a rousingly told and sumptuously illustrated picture book featuring the stunning vistas of the American West, as seen through the eyes of its most heroic animal, the horse.
Spirit is the leader of a herd of wild mustangs. Rustlers, soldiers, and railroad builders capture and attempt to tame the stallion just as they are taming the land, but the mustang has a determination and a need for freedom that cannot be contained. Through bravery, cunning, and an unexpected friendship with a Native American boy, Spirit finds his way home again.

Beautiful book.... This is a really beautiful book...high quality...the graphics and story are excellent...my 5 year old loves it. It's a keeper.
spirit: stallion of the cimmaron Great book and easy for kids to read. No nightmares here! Good story line where the good guys win and the ending will not disappoint the little ones...or the readers. This is a Tale with a meaning behind it and lessons to learn while providing action and a love story suitable for young readers. It Encouraged my kids to inquire about history and initiated a great teaching and learning opportunity for all of us. I Cannot recommend this book enough. It's a favorite in my family--the movie and the soundtrack are even better. The kids loved the movie and the soundtrack is easy listening for us too.
Beautiful artwork! Wonderful story! I bought this book for my 3 year old. I was surprised at the beautiful paintings within this book. You sometimes forget your reading a children's book. This is the story of a mustang, stolen away from his herd and his freedom. With his new friends, a young Lakota brave and his pretty paint mare, he discovers not all humans are bad, never give up, and never let them break you. The new American hero for children and yes, even their parents to love.
