The Attack

Izzy and The Mini Gang

The Attack

The mini Shetlands in Izzy’s gang look forward to a nice, quiet summer. They wan’t to chill and have fun in the pasture with their foals. They know nothing of the danger that lurks in the woods. In the nearby forest, baby animals are disappearing without a trace. Izzy, the lead mare, is afraid – are the foals in her herd in danger too? How will she be able to protect them and who is threatening her ponies? Izzy must be ready in case somebody attacks the herd.
