Synopsis
"No horsefeathers, this is a surefire bet for young equestrians." — Booklist
Do you love horses? Do you love the way their noses are silky-soft but bristly too? And the way a horse's tail slowly swishes as he rests in the shade with eyes half-shut? Do you love to see them trot, canter, gallop, buck and rear? Every child who has ever clambered up the back of a pony or dreamed of owning a horse will delight in A Field Full of Horses. Full of interesting facts about horses, this handsome book captures the very essence of horses for the very young.

About the Author
Peter Hansard is a children's author living in New Zealand.
From Booklist
Ages 4-7. With its simple text and pencil-and-watercolor illustrations set against ample white space, this is the horse book librarians have been looking for. The first-person narrative is lyrical and immediate, presenting the behavior, appearance, anatomy, offspring, and movements of a wide variety of breeds. Shown in a natural setting within the body of the text, the animals are pictured in neat rows on the endpapers. While Lilly's attractive drawings have simple forms (his usual detailing is absent), his renderings are solid and anatomically correct, with black outlines that invite tracing. As in other entries in the lauded Read and Wonder series, the numerous captions provide additional information; here, it's about food, grooming, and gender. No horsefeathers, this is a surefire bet for young equestrians. Julie Corsaro
