About Stormy, Misty's Foal by Marguerite Henry
Marguerite Henry’s Stormy, Misty’s Foal is described as the third sequel to Misty of Chincoteague, inspired by real events surrounding the Ash Wednesday Storm of 1962. The nor’easter lasted three days while Misty was pregnant and staying at the Beebe ranch on Chincoteague.
The real storm killed many of the unprotected island ponies. Misty and her newborn foal, Stormy, later helped publicize a fundraising effort to restock the herd. Readers interested in horse stories grounded in documented events, island ponies, and the aftermath of a major storm may find this account especially appealing.
