Jerry is a big white horse with soft eyes and a kind heart. He lives at Kataluna Horse Rescue, where families come and go — but nobody has chosen Jerry. Not yet.

Seven months pass. Jerry waits. He grazes. He swishes his tail in the sunshine. He is patient, because good things are worth waiting for.

Then one day, someone new comes through the gate. Jerry lifts his head. His ears go up. And he begins to walk — all the way across the field — right toward her.

BOOK ONE of THE LEGEND OF JERRY SERIES

Every morning, the gate clicks open. Every morning, Jerry’s ears go up. She’s here.

Jerry and his person walk the same neighborhood roads every day — past the gardens, past the park, past the friendly animals behind their fences. It is ordinary. It is wonderful. And with every walk, something quietly grows between them.

Until one sunny day, she leads him somewhere new — down a winding trail, toward the sound of rushing water. The Snoqualmie River. Jerry has never seen anything like it.

He looks at the water. He looks at her. She smiles and nods. And Jerry steps in.

“Trust doesn’t happen all at once. It grows - one walk, one apple, one splash at a time.”

BOOK TWO of THE LEGEND OF JERRY SERIES

Saturday mornings are different from all the other mornings. Saturday mornings mean Jenny — and Jenny means it's time to learn something new.

Side by side, his person and Jerry work together every week. Carrot stretches. Ground poles. A bow. And — because Jerry is very fancy — a yoga pose.

Week by week, something is changing. Jerry's muscles fill out. His steps grow light and sure. People stop them on their walks just to say: he looks so good. He looks so strong. He looks so happy.

He is. He really, truly is.

"Growing stronger doesn't happen all at once. It happens carrot by carrot, Saturday by Saturday, until one day you look up — and you realize you are there."

BOOK THREE of THE LEGEND OF JERRY SERIES

Jerry doesn't know what a parade is. But he trusts his person — so he steps into the trailer.

Fall City is loud. Sleigh bells jangle. Crowds cheer. Strange horses press in from every side. Jerry is placed at the back of the parade, and he does not like the back.

But then his person is right beside him, calm and steady. And the parade begins to move.

Somewhere along the way, Jerry realizes the crowd is smiling — at him. So he walks a little faster. His head comes up. His ears point forward.

Jerry is leading now — right where he was always meant to be

"Being brave doesn't mean nothing scares you. It means you keep walking anyway — until the leader within you finds its way."

BOOK FOUR of THE LEGEND OF JERRY SERIES

Jerry's person arrives one morning with a special kind of excitement — the kind that means friends are coming.

The Unicorn Club is not just one horse. It is all of them — big ones and small ones, white ones and brown ones, young ones and old ones.

They walk through the neighborhood together, filling the streets with warmth. At the park, the horses graze while their people laugh.

Jerry grazes beside his person and feels it: he has walked rivers, led parades, learned to bow, and found his people. He is not the horse who waited seven months anymore. He is a legend.

"Some hearts are big enough to belong to one person and to everyone all at once. Jerry had that kind of heart."

Book Five of The Legend of Jerry series

The Legend of Jerry: Collection One brings together the first five books in the beloved Legend of Jerry series in a single hardcover edition — a perfect gift for horse lovers, families, and anyone who believes in the power of patience, friendship, and finding where you belong.

These five stories are inspired by the true story of Jerry Rain — a senior white gelding rescued from the auction pipeline by Kataluna Horse Rescue in the Pacific Northwest. After seven months of sanctuary, Jerry was adopted — and together he and his person thrived. In ten extraordinary months, they walked rivers and led Christmas parades, learned new skills every Saturday, made friends of every size and shape, and found magic in the most ordinary of days.
