Katie is crazy for horses! She pretends her bike is a horse, but its missing a mane and tail. She rides a horse on a merry-go-round, but its mane and tail were just made of wood. But one day, her dad surprises her with a trip to a ranch, where she'll get to ride a real horse. Finally Katie's horse dreams are coming true!

Fran Manushkin is the author of many popular picture books, including How Mama Brought the Spring; Baby, Come Out!; Latkes and Applesauce: A Hanukkah Story; and The Tushy Book. There is a real Katie Woo ― she's Fran's great-niece ― but she never gets in half the trouble of the Katie Woo in the books. Fran writes on her beloved MacBook in New York City.
Tammie Lyon began her love for drawing at a young age while sitting at the kitchen table with her dad. She continued her love of art and eventually attended The Columbus College of Art and Design, where she earned a Bachelors degree in Fine Art. After a brief career as a professional ballet dancer, she decided to devote herself full time to illustration. Today she lives with her husband, Lee, in Cincinnati, Ohio. Her dogs, Gus and Dudley, keep her company as she works in her studio.
K-Gr 2—These two entries follow the successful format already established in this popular series. In each title, three brief chapters with plenty of full-color illustrations, large font, and ample white space serve to relate a single adventure and a single conflict that young children will easily recognize. On a visit to a ranch in Cowgirl, horse-crazy Katie is totally gung ho, until the size of the horse brings on a few unexpected jitters. Likewise, in Fly High, a misplaced teddy bear interferes somewhat with the thrill of a first plane ride. A consistent cast of supporting characters that includes friends Pedro and JoJo, as well as Katie's kind and reassuring parents, helps the little girl to navigate her world. Each book concludes with discussion questions, suggested writing prompts, and a hands-on activity related to the given topic. Solid purchases for established Katie Woo fans or where there's a need for beginning readers.—Gloria Koster, West School, New Canaan, CT
