The Galway Connemara, honored as Best International Young Adult Book at the EQUUS Film Festival 2024, is a contemporary narrative inspired by the timeless Black Beauty. Set along Ireland’s stunning Atlantic coast, it tells the story of Lir, a spirited grey Connemara pony born during a storm on County Galway’s shores. Raised with love and freedom by his Nana, Lir’s world changes when he is sold at three years old. Narrated from his perspective, the novel traces his experiences across Ireland—from showjumping and eventing to dressage and family life. This poignant story explores themes of resilience, empathy, and the unique bond between humans and animals, making it perfect for horse enthusiasts and readers aged 10 and above. Discover Lir’s heartfelt journey and find out if he can secure the forever home he seeks.
