Paint the Wind by Pam Munoz Ryan

Paint the Wind by Pam Munoz Ryan

Maya is a captive. In Grandmother's house in California, she is forbidden from playing or having friends, every word and action is strictly monitored, and even her memories of her mother have been erased - except within the imaginary world she has created. A world away, in the rugged Wyoming wilderness, a tobiano paint horse called Artemesia runs free, belonging only to the stars. The mother of a new foal and the lead mare of a harem band in a land where survival is precarious, she embodies the spirit of the wild - and she holds the key to Maya's memories. How Maya's and Artemesia's lives intertwine, like a braided rein, is at the heart of this richly drawn adventure about freedom and captivity, about holding on and letting go.
