About the book
"The Killer Pony" is a set in '50s Pennsylvania when the area, the pony and the characters were having 'growing pains'. "Killer" was a mistreated and misunderstood pony that found his way into understanding hands and loving hearts. In the beginning he was called 'Killer' for good reason; he would have killed a human if given the chance and was slated for 'the killer pen' (dog meat/glue) at auction. Fortunately, Mr. Henderson saw his potential and took him home for his stable help to work with. Through Amy Martin's patients and understanding he was groomed to reach his full potential as an equine athlete.
