Description

The inspiring true story of Reckless, the brave little horse who become a Marine.

When a group of US Marines fighting within the Korean War found a bedraggled mare, they wondered if she may well be trained to as a packhorse. They’d no idea that the skinny, underfed horse had one of the most biggest and bravest hearts they’d ever known. And one of the most biggest appetites!

Soon Reckless showed herself more than willing to hold ammunition too heavy for the warriors to haul. As cannons thundered and shells flew in the course of the air, she marched into battle—over and over again—becoming the one animal ever to officially hold military rank—becoming Sgt. Reckless—and receive two Purple Hearts.

This is the first picture book from award-winning novelist Patricia McCormick, sumptuously illustrated by acclaimed artist Iacopo Bruno.
