About the Brand
When a baby horse was born in our stable, we witnessed the bonding between mom and child. The baby would be called Lady Thistle, sired by Lord Shanequil. We wanted to share this experience and educational information about horses and farm life with youth. We are pleased to share Lady Thistle with young readers via a series of 20+ horse books, a clothing line, collectibles, accessories, and more. Products can be found in The Agways (Eighty Four Pa, Butler PA, Grove City PA, Mt. Nebo Road, Pittsburgh, PA ), Heisler's Market (McMurray, PA), Faces Fingers Feet (Mechanicsburg, PA), State Line Track, and other stores. Book 1 in the series has been recognized as the 2024 PA Farmstastic Book of the Year.
About D.H. Anderson
Working with horses for the last 30 years is more than just a hobby; it’s a way of life. Donna grew up just outside Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, near Waterdam Farm, the Lady Thistle book series setting.
Donna loves and cares for five horses on her property, inspiring her to document their chronicles as a picture book series with the hope of sharing a peek into the equine world through real-life stories.
Before jumping into equestrian writing, Donna earned her BA from the University of Pittsburgh and has worked as an Organizational Development Leader for a 300-bed hospital. Her life experiences have led her toward a love of literature and writing and a belief in the importance of quality, fun, and educational children’s stories.
Her goal with the Lady Thistle children's book series, all about horses, is to encourage children toward a lifelong love of horses and literature. children's books
