FROM SARAH:

A classic novel by the author of Misty of Chincoteague, who based this story on a real-life Grand Canyon burro who touched even the life of President Teddy Roosevelt. The audiobook is especially well done. Read it before or after a visit to the Grand Canyon!

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

Long ago, a lone little burro roamed the high cliffs of the Grand Canyon and touched the hearts of all who knew him: a grizzled old miner, a big-game hunter, even President Teddy Roosevelt. Named Brighty by the prospector who befriended him, he remained a free spirit at heart. But when a ruthless claim-jumper murdered the prospector, loyal Brighty risked everything to bring the killer to justice.
