Reading atmosphere filled with excitement and warmth
Antje Szillat is one of the familiar voices in German-speaking children’s and youth literature. Her books combine narrative lightness with a clear perspective on friendship, movement, and childlike perception. Especially in this series, a reading unfolds that is not only read but experienced: ponies, holiday feelings, and a hint of detective excitement give the evening an immediate, almost cinematic dynamic. Szillat has been writing since childhood, successfully publishing for children, teenagers, and adults, and combines her literary work with years of experience in promoting reading.

A work that sounds of riding lessons, friendship, and discovery
Pony-Strong Holidays – a horse dream comes true tells of Toni, Merle, and a summer at Nessie's pony farm in Denmark. The book relies on clear, child-friendly suspense: ponies that disappear at night, mysterious clues, and a suspicious Emilia open up a plot that immediately draws in young readers. As part of a new children's book series from the Schneiderbuch program, the title stands for love of horses, adventurous spirit, and the kind of reading material that makes you curious for more.
