A must-have for horse lovers! This elaborate, novelty-rich guide to keeping horses and riders in winning form is a breed apart.
A passion for horses inspires a desire not only to ride but also to care for these splendid creatures. And now two experienced stable hands pass on their hard-won knowledge about such tasks as grooming and feeding, tacking up, and keeping equipment in top shape, along with tips on how to mount and dismount and perfect your riding posture so it seems you were born with a set of reins in your hands. Among this book’s many novelty features are:
* A lift-the-flap saddle
* Ribbon stickers
* Informative booklets
* Pull-out cards
* A certificate of achievement at the end
Truly an equine extravaganza, this insider’s guide offers everything a weekend rider or aspiring horse owner would want to know.

Grade 2–5—This clever and pleasing guide contains a wealth of information on horses, including history, breeds, care and grooming, equipment, riding, and shows. Facts and tips are presented in an imaginative and lively format. The excellent, realistic illustrations are colorful and accurate and even occasionally humorous. This volume also offers some tactile and visual elements that include a small flip book showing a horse's gaits, an English saddle whose flaps and stirrup leathers move, and several foldouts such as one that lists the major breeds around the world. Readers can look through a Dutch door to check out the interior of a stable and get detailed directions on mucking out a stall. There are lots of these surprises, including an envelope that contains a certificate awarding membership in the Horse and Pony Lovers' Club. This handbook deserves a blue ribbon for its appealing celebration of horses. It's a treat for browsing and an entertaining source for pertinent information.—Carol Schene, formerly at Taunton Public Schools, MA
