For Sale - Beautiful Denise Peterson print of a Morgan foal romping in front of a full moon. Signed and dated (1992), it is matted and framed. The frame is 15.5 x 15.5, the print is 11 x 11. I purchased it back in the 90s at the Maine Morgan Show when it was held in Skowhegan. It was displayed for several years and then carefully stored. $125 plus shipping. I'd love to sell it locally to avoid shipping a glass frame (I'm close to Northampton, MA, and would be happy to meet the buyer near the fairgrounds). Otherwise, I can calculate shipping. Message me for more info or to purchase. I can take Paypal or a credit card through my publishing company.

50% off Morgan Horse books! These are all brand-new books with slight imperfections (bent covers, etc.) that arrived from the printer with this damage, or some came back from Amazon when they over-ordered and then shipped the books back one by one in flimsy envelopes and they got bent. No damage to the pages that would make them hard to read. I'm happy to sign the books if you want. These are all originally priced at either $9.95 or $12.95. This is a great chance to stock up on holiday gifts, barn gifts for the "barn rats," etc. Just $5 per book, shipping is $8.95, regardless of quantity so it makes sense to order several and save per book. I can take Paypal or credit cards over the phone. Best way to order is message me to make sure I see your message. I'll also check the posts (posting to several forums)

This is what I have (I'm including photos of the covers too):

- Baby Horse (just one copy)
- Rocket: The Miniature Morgan Horse (book #1 of my new Rocket series), 18 copies
- Rocket: The Blue-Ribbon Pony (book #2 of the Rocket series), 3 copies
- Blackjack: Dreaming of a Morgan Horse, (book #1 in my Morgan Horse series), 2 copies
- Robin: The Lovable Morgan Hose, (book #4 in my Morgan Horse series), 1 copy
- Pidgy's Surprise by Jeanne Mellin, (if you knew Jeanne, and her stunning artwork, you'll know that this is an amazing pony book), just 1 copy
- The Quarter Horse Coloring Book (same format as my Morgan coloring book, if you have QH friends, this will make a great gift), 3 copies
- Meet the Morgans, (the companion book to my Morgan series, includes photos of all the real horses behind the books as well as several fantastic photos of Morgans from around the country "doing their thing"), 5 copies
- What Can I Do? (book 1 in my Amazon best-selling Donkey-Donk series, for very young readers, a funny donkey story with professional photos of the real Donk), 2 copies
- Take A Hike, (book 3 in my Donkey-Donk series), 2 copies
- What Does A Police Horse Do? (simple story with photos of a real police horse, with behind-the-scenes looks at what police horses do), 1 copy

I'm sad to report that Bijou, one of the stars of my children's book, What Does A Police Dog Do?, has passed. She was an accelerant detection K9 (arson), and had an amazing career. I was fortunate to be able to spend time with her and watch her work during our photoshoots for my book. I also got to play with her and she was a big love bug. Deeply loved and very missed by Trooper Patrick Clayton. 😢

You can read more about her career at: https://www.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=902638168569436&id=100064697826432&mibextid=L0MuaQ&rdid=PLIpIYtzicweyyzO

With lots of whimsical elements added to each picture, it will be hard to decide which one to do first! From reining to jumping, and from playing in a river to prancing at ....

I'm excited to share that book #2 in my Rocket the Miniature Morgan Horse series, "Rocket: The Blue-Ribbon Pony," won a national book award!

I'm looking for a headshot of a Quarter Horse that screams "breed type" for the cover of my updated Quarter Horse Coloring Book. Maybe a handsome stallion in a western halter - something simple but that really shows off the horse's head. You need to own the copyright to the photo (or be able to get a release) that the artist will use to make the image. Both the image and the photo will be on the cover. There is no payment but I will be happy to give you a copy of the final coloring book when it comes out. To get an idea of what I need, here's the cover of the Morgan version. You can reply here with the photo or message me.

The second edition of "The Morgan Horse Coloring Book" has arrived! This edition has eight additional pages, plus I've changed a few of the original images. If you order from Amazon, you'll get the first edition until they sell out of their stock (a month or two). If you want the new edition, you can order from the publisher. And they'll include a free pack of crayons!

I thought people would find this interesting. Image one is a mock-up Jeanne did for one of the illustrations for my book, "Robin: The Lovable Morgan Horse." The next image is the final version that appeared in the book. And then, of course, the book cover.
