A story of Love, Rescue and Second Chances
by Lisa McConathy
Barbie
Neigh Neigh Series Introduction Book
Welcome to the farm!
In this delightful introduction to the Neigh Neigh Series, young readers meet Barbie and her pony friends from McConathy Farm Rescue Team.
This gentle, beautifully illustrated story is designed especially for little horse lovers. Each page introduces a different pony by name, allowing children to become familiar with the real-life farm animals who inspire the series.
Barbie and her friends aren’t just storybook characters — they are real ponies who live on a working Kentucky rescue farm. Through simple storytelling and warm farm scenes, children are invited to step into a peaceful pasture where:
• Ponies graze under wide blue skies
• Barn doors open to new adventures
• Friendship grows in quiet moments
• And every pony has a name and a story to tell
This introductory book is perfect for young children who love animals and are just beginning their reading journey. The clear, engaging format encourages name recognition, early reading confidence, and connection to the characters they will continue to meet throughout the Neigh Neigh Series.
Then you will find lots of pages for your child to color. They can even give their ponies a name.

It has always been a dream to share what we do and how we do it when rescuing or taking in a horse. Also, I want to share each horse, pony, donkey or animal's story as they deserve to be heard. Our goal is to help as many animals and people in need that we can each year. We have saved over 100 horses already. Hoping the book sales, etc. will help us raise the funds to start our Horse Ministry division where we can use Christian values and help others through equine therapy!
