An American Library Association 2021 Best Graphic Novel for Children
Twelve-year-old Kate is laser-focused on her one true passion: horseback riding. But try as she might, she can't hide from life's problems in the stable.
There's nothing Kate loves more than being around horses. But her best friend is allergic to them, so Kate has to take riding lessons without her. Kate's forced to navigate some of life's hardshipsālike the mean girls at the stable who tease her and her body insecuritiesāall on her own. To make matters worse, Kate is continually falling off her horse. To Kate, her tween years feel like one unfair punishment after another. Can she get over it allā¦and get back on her horse?
Horse Trouble, the debut graphic novel from children's book artist Kristin Varner, is an oh-so-relatable graphic novel with humor and heart.

What reviewers said
"Kateās first-person narration imbues a matter-of-fact tone, matched by panelsāsketched in blue pencil and digitally inkedāthat carefully detail expressive Kateās ups, downs, and in-betweens."
Ā"Although horses are Kateās 'thing,' readers donāt need to be horse lovers to empathize with her self-consciousness and growing self-confidence."āSchool Library Journal
