Starlight's Shooting Star
Another story about "Miranda Stevens and her horse, Starlight, the black stallion she loves and wants to own. Now, at age twelve Miranda and her friends learn new lessons from life's twists and turns."--Cover back.
Starlight's Courage
Starlights Courage is second in an award-winning series about the mishaps and adventures that form a bond of love between two spirited creatures: a girl and a horse. Miranda Stevens adventures with Starlight, an injured two year old stallion, have only begun in Miranda and Starlight. In this exciting sequel, both the girl and the horse are called upon to exhibit loyalty, courage and endurance. Miranda and her friends, Christopher and Laurie, ride Chriss horse, Queen in fierce competition against their classmates, unaware that a mad man is out for revenge. There is a feature film currently in development based upon the first two books in this series. It is difficult to find good young adult and middle-grade books with a horse theme. These are the first books in a series for middle grade girls (and boys) featuring Miranda Stevens and a horse named Starlight. These books with modern themes are well written with a fast pace and should be a hot selling series to the target audience. We rated them five hearts.

Just Work
This elegant essay on the justice of work focuses on the fit between who we are and the kind of work we do. Russell Muirhead shows how the common hope for work that fulfills us involves more than personal interest; it also points to larger understandings of a just society. We are defined in part by the jobs we hold, and Muirhead has something important to say about the partial satisfactions of the working life, and the increasingly urgent need to balance the claims of work against those of family and community. Against the tendency to think of work exclusively in contractual terms, Muirhead focuses on the importance of work to our sense of a life well lived. Our notions of freedom and fairne...
