Sergeant Reckless, by Patricia McCormick | Nominee 2 of 3
With every war comes stories of heroism. In this case, it's a little mare used to haul ammunition by U.S. soldiers during the Korean War. Though the marines had doubts about her ability to haul the heavy loads, they began her training. It quickly became apparent that not only did Reckless have a large heart, she'd also consume anything-including chocolate, Coca-Cola, and poker chips.
Video Sergeant Reckless presented by Kristi Farrell.
