Nokota(R) Voices (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780228625599)

Fields Farm lies in a forgotten little town in the middle of the wide-open spaces of North Dakota prairie land. The eclectic people who call this place home get by humbly caring for and rehoming retired horses, as well as nurturing a small herd of preservation bred Nokota(R) horses. On this farm everyone has a purpose - animals and humans alike. Sometimes, it just takes a little time to find out what that is.

What do you do when you want to contribute to something so much bigger than yourself? How do you discover something you know is inside you, but it sits deep and unreachable? How do you get this special part of you to the surface so you can offer it to others?

You strike out on your own with your faithful dog and beloved horses and drive across the stretches of North Dakota to find the true meaning of family in a place that's been waiting for you - a humble horse farm where Nokota(R) horses fly across the prairie. And then, you let the horses show you.

Come ride the Nokota(R) wave with this story of self-discovery, inner magic, and heritage as seventeen-year-old Paisley Noon discovers her eclectic extended family living in a forgotten little town in North Dakota. On these open plains pound the hoofbeats of a rare and magnificent horse breed. The Nokota(R). Narrowly escaping extinction twice, these descendants of Sitting Bull's war ponies relentlessly call for their families - their people. When the Lakota neighbor sweeps into Paisley's life like the prairie winds through the manes of his small herd of preservation-bred Nokota(R) horses, Paisley soon discovers her purpose lies with them. The enchanting voices these horses carry have whispered to her for some time. She hears their call. She just needs to know what they're saying.
