There was also TV drama series based on the book and scripted by Rosemary Anne Sisson.

Collectors Info:
Horse in the House (the paperback at least) is by far the easiest one to find and is the only one commonly seen in the UK. Hardbacks can be harder to track down. Golden Mare is also reasonably easy to get hold of on internet book sites. Pony For Keeps however is a lot rarer and more expensive to buy, especially outside of America.
