I would love to try and help you, but could you make your point a little more clear please? Also, I don't mean to insult or bother you, but would you mind using proper grammar? It would make it easier for people to understand and help you.

So, you're asking if other people have heard of a book series called "The Black Stallion" and you're complaining about how hard it is to save up money, right? I know the feeling! It's really hard trying to save your money, but it's a good habit to form.

I've never heard of "The Black Stallion", sorry.

GASP!! A new book???? YAY!!!!!

I LOVE the Black Stallion! I have read almost all the books! I can't help you with saving money much but...Only buy the things you REALLY need. Chips and sodas DON'T COUNT AS NEEDS! You can get one or two IF you have money to spare.

I *think* I understand. I'd say your first thing would be to look at your income and where it comes from (side jobs, allowance, whatever) and how often you get it and how much it is. If you already have enough saved for the other books (I think that's what you meant?) then you only have to figure out how long it will be before you need the money for the new book and how much it will cost. That tells you how much you need to save each week (or month) to have enough when it's available. The rest of your money goes towards your savings and chicken expenses. Unless you have to have a certain amount for those in a certain time frame, too, then you'll have to prioritize that first then once you have it all, save more heavily towards the book.

Find some extra jobs/chores you can do to earn some extra money to help speed the process along. Dog walking, plant/garden watering while people are gone, taking care of mail and pets for people on vacation, weeding, etc.

Edited to add:
You can find most of these at the library to read for free. Marguerite Henry is also a really good horse book author. I love her Chincoteague stories. I seldom by "new" books anymore. I read them so fast and $20-$30 is a lot. I wait till they go on sale at least or show up at the used book stores
