Young Consuela’s day is marked by the horses she loves. There’s<br />

the clip-clop-clink of the horse that pulls the milk wagon, the quicktrot<br />

clippety-clop of the beautiful brown tea wagon horse, and the<br />

lolop…lolop…lolop of the produce man’s tired gray horse. She knows<br />

them all and shows the hard-working creatures as much kindness<br />

as she can. Finally the time comes when her kindness is rewarded<br />

– with a ride on a very special horse.<br />

At the turn of the 20th century, horses were willing workers,<br />

good company, and common sights on city streets. They pulled<br />

delivery wagons, carted away junk, and brought a smile to many<br />

faces with their familiar presence. Horses would eventually give<br />

way to cars, but nothing will ever replace the sounds and beauty<br />

of the gentle clip-clop horses.<br />

Author Eleanor Koldofsky grew up in Toronto’s Kensington<br />

Market and evokes that long-ago time in this affectionate story.<br />
