Jef Aerts - A piros csizmás ló

Our protagonist, Sófi, returns home one day with Babér, the horse with red boots. The little girl's parents aren't really keen on the idea of ​​having an apple-shaped Icelandic pony in their not-too-spacious living room for years to come. However, Sófi does everything in order to keep her promise to Babér's former owner, the recently deceased Olga, that she will take care of her four-legged friend, who had a very difficult life before, at any cost. Why the shoes ended up on the horse's hooves, what friendship and love can do, and what humans and animals can learn from each other, can be found in this profoundly moving, yet humorous novel.
Jef Aerts is one of the outstanding creators of Flemish children's and youth literature, his work has been awarded several prizes. Together with her three children, she lives on a farm where animals are also kept.
