Fergus and the Man Named Jim

In his newest comic adventure, Fergus, the world’s favorite cartoon horse, finds out how humans can help make his body and mind feel better—if he lets them. “Everyone loves Fergus!” say reviewers, and now the opinionated cartoon horse and bona fide social media star is back in an all-new comic adventure. In his sixth book, Fergus is finding show ring success, clearing jumps and winning prizes. But the stress of travel and performing his best begins to take a toll, and for the first time in his friend-and-grass-filled life, Fergus doesn’t feel so good. His muscles are tight and painful, and he is always worried about silly things that used to make him laugh. When Fergus meets a gentle mustached man named Jim, he discovers a different way to spend time with humans—with their hands offering a great big release of tension from his sore spots and his busy mind. Featuring the talented Jean Abernethy's hysterically funny illustrations and scenes replete with supporting characters as amusing as their endearingly awkward hero, Fergus and the Man Named Jim entertains while reminding us all to make the horse’s well-being a priority. Recommended for ages 5 to 95.
