The blend of school and pony works really well, and the stories are gripping. There's just the right blend of drama and character to keep you hooked. Cressida also writes a really good pony, and that's not something you can always say.

The Ravensbay School Stories are so evocative and the characters so well drawn that within the first few pages you’ll feel as though you’re right there with Paige, her friends and - of course - their ponies. I love them!

This is such a brilliant concept for a series of pony books, and one that will give young readers the same escapism and inspiration that the Jill books gave me. Friends with kids who love ponies... these are books they need to read!

Lovely for pony-mad youngsters (and the young at heart). Evokes the satisfying nostalgia of boarding school stories with a modern twist.

Addictive page turner.
The complexities of a dysfunctional family's attempts to have the perfect Christmas left me alternating between wanting to hug each person and scream at them.

About the Author
Cressida Burton writes middle grade pony, adventure and boarding school stories for younger readers, and comedy-drama stories, with a little bit of romance thrown in, for grown-ups.
Cressida's stories are all set in North Yorkshire, mostly on the stunning North Yorkshire coast and within the North Yorkshire Moors National Park, where she lives with her husband, Mr B, and their big ginger floof of a cat.
