Cayuse's Canyon
Janie's New Legs
“In riding a horse, we borrow freedom.”
—Helen Thompson
“By the time Ken reached Flicka in the morning, she…was standing broadside to the level sunlight, gathering in every ultraviolet ray, every infrared, for the healing and the recreation her battered body needed.”
—Mary O’Hara, from My Friend Flicka
“I was very much troubled, and I put my nose up to hers, but I could say nothing to comfort her. I think she was pleased to see me, for she said, ‘You are the only friend I ever had.’”
—Anna Sewell, from Black Beauty
RELEASED IN MARCH 2008- Janie's New Legs is the heartwarming story of Silver, a shy pony, rescued from abuse and neglect, and Janie, a fragile young girl, paralyzed from a car accident. Janie meets Silver at a handicapped riding facility, where she goes to escape the constant confinement of her wheelchair. An extraordinary friendship soon develops and the two gradually begin the road to healing and recovery together.
Janie’s New Legs covers a ten year span of Janie and Silver’s special bond, while tackling all of the adversities that life throws at them. The story demonstrates that, no matter how difficult the obstacles appear, friendship and love can rise above anything.
Janie’s New Legs is Diana's second novel, which she began writing at age 16.

Excerpt from Janie’s New Legs:
"The girl and I locked eyes for a moment and stared at each other. To me, her eyes felt sad, even scared, but with a certain strength underneath them. I could tell that like me, she felt beaten, but like me, she wasn’t going to lie down and give in."
