Danny and Life on Bluff Point: My Horse Sally is the fifth book of the Danny and Life on Bluff Point series. This series includes stories based upon the real life accounts of the author’s father while growing up in the Finger Lake Region of upstate New York at the turn of the last century. Each of these timeless tales transports the reader back to traditional life in early America.

Danny and Life on Bluff Point: My Horse Sally, like the other books in this series, contains a number of adventures and misadventures of young Danny. In this particular book, Danny learns an important lesson about judging people based upon their appearance and common stereotypes. This lesson becomes particularly valuable in the boy’s interactions with Mr Ehule at the local college and when Danny meets his new friend, Little Bird.
