The Tucson sky was beautiful with rich sunset colors on that early August evening at the stable. The gentle sound of music flowed over horses one and all.

	Maxx is severely bitten by a rattlesnake. If he lives there is the possibility of the loss of his left hind leg. This is a true story about a young girl who gives him love, care, and music to help him perform again.

	Reviews: This is a beautifully written story of the bond between a young girl and her horse and what happened when her horse's life was in jeopardy. The illustrations are exquisite, detailing the horse and the lovely area in which the story takes place. Each one is a work of art that can stand on its own. I highly recommend this story - it's the perfect book/gift for any horse lover you may know! (amazon.com) Miracle Maxx is a touching story. I think Maxx is a horse with one great advantage. He has brave and loving owners who went the extra mile to save him. There is much more to this story than is in this book. I also loved the illustrations. They are real and ring true. I loved the photos on the back. (amazon.com)
