Comment: This is a great book and I would recomend it for many people.
Thunderheads mother was Flika, Ken Mclaughtins first filly. Thunderhead was the first white horse born on the Goose Bar Ranch in Wyoming. Thunderhead jumps fences and climbes mountains. He finds a passage way to a valley that Ken later names Valley of the Eagles. This leads to an old albino stailion, Thunderhead gets a few nips and hoof marks before he is able to get out of the valley and return to the ranch. Thunderhead adventually goes back to the valley and kills the albino staillion. He adeopts the mares that the albino had once cared for. Thunderhead retutns home and is caught by Kens dad Captain Mclaughtin. Thunderhead is sceduled to be in a race because he is very fast and powerful. Thunderhead starts the race but looses his themper and bucks his rider off, the jumps a fence. The Goose Bar Ranch already has a stallion, Banner. Ken, knowing he can't keep his horse locks, Thunderhead in the Valley of the Eagles. Anyone who likes horses and is in middle school or above should read this book.

Summary: A Wonderful Book! Very Intruiging
Comment: Thunderhead is definately a must read! Ken's favorite horse Flicka gives birth to a white colt, it's a throwback, the only white horse on the ranch. And, on top of that, it looks like an ugly goblin and "scrabbles" instead of runs, when Ken wanted it ever so badly to be a champion racehorse. After a long time the horse grows into a beautiful, muscular horse and earns the name Thunderhead. Now the only problem is, his EXTREMELY bad temper and wild spirit. Throughout this book, Ken tries to gain the horses trust, and trains it to become a racehorse. And, you'll have to read the rest of the book to find out what happens. I recommend this book to all readers above 4th or 5th grade!

Summary: GREAT BOOK
Comment: I loved THUNDERHEAD. It is powerful and moving,and Ken matured a lot! Thunderhead is such a wild, hideous colt in the beginning, but he turns into a handsome colt--and grows wilder. Ken fears he won't be a racer. Thunderhead is always escaping to dominate a herd of wild mares. He fights with the legendary Albino and becomes strong and fierce. The ending is..a surprise.
