 Wonderful book! April 25, 2007

5 out of 5 found this review helpful
I found this book very readable with lots of beautiful pictures. It has sections on horse breeds(horses&ponies), horse's coloring/markings, grooming, traveling, trimming, stable management, feeding, health & caring for a sick horse, tack, it even has a section on riding(mostly eastern)and driving! This book only gives basic information with a reasonable amount of detail, I would reccommend this book for any horse lover of any age. If you plan on owning a horse someday and want a book on training your horse, this isn't the best choice. If you want to know what goes into caring for a horse I would reccomend this book. Again, it has wonderful pictures and is easy to read, I love it and have confidence you will too.

My daughter got this for her 5th birthday in August and still looks at it everyday. She can't read yet but she loves the pictures and everyday copies sentences out of the book because she is doing her, so called, "horse homework". I'm learning a ton too.
