Henry - A New Beginning Book Launch
About
YOU’RE INVITED TO THE LAUNCH OF HENRY: A NEW BEGINNINGInspired by the true story of a retired thoroughbred
Meet Henry, a horse who discovered that life is about so much more than winning.
Authored by Jillian Annand, Henry: A New Beginning is a heartwarming story of friendship, healing, belonging and second chances.
Henry was bred to race. There was just one problem. He wasn’t particularly interested in being a racehorse.
After 21 starts, five trainers, one win and more float trips than he ever cared to remember, Henry’s racing career came to an end.
But that wasn’t the end of his story.
It was the beginning of something entirely new.
Inspired by the true story of retired Thoroughbred Lichen Lad, better known as Henry, this beautiful story follows his journey from the racetrack to a life filled with friendship, healing, mischief and belonging.
Along the way, Henry meets an unforgettable herd of characters, including wise old racehorses, opinionated mares, troublesome donkeys and Popeye, a one-eyed Shetland pony with absolutely no respect for fences and an unexpected love affair with a goat named Patricia.
Through injury, loneliness, terrifying change, new friendships and second chances, Henry discovers that a worthwhile life is not measured by wins.
Sometimes the greatest victory is finding the place where you are loved simply for being you.
