Support The Pony Dreams Project
Pre-order The Smallest Horse Now
The desire for a horse or pony is one of childhood’s most enduring fantasies, and also one that is out of reach for many kids. We conceived the Pony Dreams project to bridge that gap and help more kids connect with the magic of horses and ponies, one story at a time. The Smallest Horse is our first book in a series of stories based on the personalities and adventures of very real horses. The approximate age range is 5-8. Our readers can come to this website to meet the ponies they read about. Each story will also be linked to educational content related to the story. Click here to check out some of the content related to The Smallest Horse.
The Smallest Horse is nearly complete and we’re taking pre-orders via a Kickstarter-style campaign to support the cost of production and printing.

With your help, we hope to have the Kindle version available in July and the print edition in August. You can contribute a custom amount with any of the options below. We’ve got some great perks, including the opportunity to give your horse, dog, cat or other pet a cameo in our next book. Please note that the final prices will likely be less than what we are asking for during this fundraising event, so if you would prefer to wait, we totally understand. Please contact us if you have any questions at lorie@ponydreams.com. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. ~ Lorie & Amanda
