Description

"Well done, Paige! We're absolutely thrilled to tell you that you're the winner of our Ponies! Ponies! Ponies! magazine 25th year anniversary national 'Pony School' competition. As you know, first prize is for the magazine to pay your fees in full for the Ravensbay Boarding School and Equestrian Academy..." ...and so, eleven-year-old Paige Buchanan is catapulted from her quiet Edinburgh life, living with her mother and attending the local primary school, into the privileged world of Ravensbay where she will discover a whole new vocabulary: snacks are 'tuck', homework is 'prep' and the words 'competition girl' aren't meant as a compliment! Convinced she'll never fit in, Paige is all set to give up her place at school and return home when she sees a blue roan mare running wild in the fields. It's love at first sight for Paige, but the mare, Blue Angel, is to be sold as dangerous unless someone can save her. Suddenly Paige has a reason to stay, but can she face her fears, makes friends and, ultimately, save the pony of her dreams from a terrible fate? First Term at Ravenbay is the first title in this brand new and modern equestrian boarding school series which will follow Paige and her school-mates from their very first day in year seven, through the school years, term by term. Paige's dorm-mates are remote and prickly Taryn, very much in the shadow of her famous showjumping sister and horribly homesick; misfit swot Anna, sent to school by her wealthy, well-meaning aunt; and Paige's nemesis, pony diva Savannah, whose mother is a school governor and will do everything in her power to get the 'competition girl', kicked out of the school. Along the way you'll meet the teachers, prefects, Will the stable lad, and all the ponies! And then there's Blue Angel, a damaged blue roan American Quarter Horse. Paige's determination to save Blue Angel gets her, and her new friends, into trouble, not to mention demerit points for her house, as well as multiple bruises and far too many visits to the headmistress's office. But, in the end, it will all be worth it...won't it? The Ravensbay School Stories are the perfect pony books for fans of Amanda Wills, Stacy Gregg, Jessica Burkhart (Canterwood Crest), Lauren Brooke (Chestnut Hill) and Olivia Tuffin, and for fans of boarding school series such as Malory Towers and Trebizon.
