So I've started to re read some of my Saddle Club books I always wished the author would have included Veronica in the Club. She doesn't seem she'd be so bad but it might have been funny to have the tsudere type in the club. I always liked her a lot.
I was excited to find this community, but sad that it seems to be in hibernation. Still, it looks like there are still people following it, so I thought I'd post my doubles/needs lists. I'm buying up the series on the pretext that surely within a few years one of my nieces will prove to be horse-crazy (they're 2, 4, and unborn at the moment, so it's a little early). But I'm reading them all as I find them, funny how that happens...
Anyway, my doubles are: #3: Horse Crazy #4 Horse Power (I have three copies of that, actually, so two to give away) #10 Riding Camp (also 2 to give away) #28 Stable Manners #54 Gold Medal Rider #69 Endurance Ride
I need #7, 11-17, 25, 31, 52, 53, 55, 56, 62-64, 67, 74, 76, 83, 87, and 92, plus all the special editions except Western Star.
I'd be happy to swap any of my dupes for any of my needs, or to send out my dupes for the cost of shipping, or swap them for something else cool (such as other horse books for, ahem, the nieces).
Okay so I'm new here and I thought I'd just drop off an Icon Dump I just made. They are icons from two differen't episodes. But there are 45 of them and one Veronica banner! Enjoy. Blanks can be used for whatever you want. No credit needed!
The new cast will feature Lauren Dixon as Stevie, Victoria Campbell as Carole, and Ariel Kaplan as Lisa. I have never heard of any of these girls, and neither has IMDb; but then, I'm not Australian and not ten years old anymore. (Wikipedia now has them listed in the Saddle Club TV series entry, but they don't have pages yet.) I'm sure more info will trickle out once the new episodes actually start.
I still find the phenomenon of recasting to be totally bizarre, but I've never been really into a show that did it, except for Party of Five. I think it would make more sense for these new actresses to play different characters at Pine Hollow (say, May, Corey, and Jasmine, just age them up appropriately -- it would not be the most horrendous thing this show has ever done to the canon), but maybe this is very common with children's shows and I've just never been watching the right ones.
I found a copy of this book in a second-hand bookshop the other day, which is great because I haven't read many of the later books. I could kind of tell that they were running out of ideas by that time though...did anyone else notice that the name of the horse (Protocol) and the owner (Mr. Crawford) came from the production companies Crawford Productions and Protocol Entertainment, which produce the Saddle Club TV series? I didn't know whether to laugh or groan!
What's the book where Stevie and Lisa decide to find out the truth about Max's grandfather? I can't remember the main plot of the book, but I'm pretty sure it's one of the earlier books in the series. Thanks :)
