Declan loves Seaneen, but his ambition to work at a top show-jumping yard is stronger than anything he's ever felt before. So when Declan is offered his dream job in Germany, he should be thrilled. There's nothing for him at home but dark history he'd rather forget. But he's terrified: leaving Seaneen is harder than he expected; troubled hood Cian won't leave him alone, and when he finds a traumatized horse in a derelict barn, he knows he has to help her. No matter how scared he is. Grounded is a gripping story of courage, fear, despair and joy by the award-winning author of Taking Flight. One of the Best Children's Books of the Year by Bank Street College of Education.
