Synopsis: In the life of every red-blooded American boy, there should be at least one super-good using horse, ideally one that the boy helped birth and raise. This animal should be a filly because the female of the species is smarter and more tractable than the male. With this being true, we must allow that beast to be endowed with a supernatural or mystic quality that makes her almost human. I have owned several members of the horse family in my life that could have been classified as a super horse. The most outstanding one was indeed a filly called Honey Gal, foaled and raised on the edge of the Sabine Riverbottom which is truly “God’s country.”
Named Honey Gal before her birth, this filly became part and parcel of my childhood. As time passed, I did indeed find more and more times when I knew exactly what Honey Gal was thinking—and there were times when she reacted to what I was thinking before I even gave a verbal command. Perhaps she was only reacting to my body language, but I chose to believe, in my child’s mind, that she was actually listening to me think. Of course, in our superior farseeing adult wisdom, we all know that Honey Gal never spoke out loud to me. Nevertheless, we conversed in ways that a non-horse-lover cannot even imagine.
Please allow me the privilege of believing that the Honey Gal that was part of Dubs life was the best companion, the best help with cattle and hogs that any boy ever possessed in that part of the Sabine Riverbottom. If an adult loses his or her childhood imagination, his or her quality of life is diminished. So, with that point made, herein Dub has a wolf-dog called Ring that he talks to and with. Also he now has a filly called Honey Gal that he and Ring both converse with. Relax and let your mind soar free from the steel trap of conventionality and enjoy the story.
“In this brilliantly written work, Dr. Sibley evokes memories, so powerful and boldly vivid, that by the end of the book, we feel as though we have been with Dub, Honey Gal, and Ring through all their adventures,” said Kathie McGuire, director of Brighton Publishing LLC. “A superb heartfelt portrayal of a young boy that will tug at your heartstrings long after you have finished the book.”
Dr. A.W. Sibley was born and raised in the small town of Negreet, Louisiana. After serving in the U.S. Army, he attended McNeese State University in Lake Charles, Louisiana, and Loyola University in New Orleans where he obtained his Doctorate in Dentistry. Dr. Sibley spent his career working as a country dentist in rural Louisiana where he raised four children with his wife, Margaret. Currently retired, Dr. Sibley resides in Merryville, Louisiana and enjoys farming and writing.
His first published work “A Wolf Called Ring” was released in 2014, receiving much acclaim in the literary market, and being hailed as a modern day Mark Twain, Dr. Sibley has reserved his place in the literary world.
