Highly recommended especially for young horse lovers
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
My First Horse and Pony Care Book is hardcover primer to basic care for horses, written especially for young people. Photographs on every page illustrate how to feeding and water horses, muck out stables, keep horses groomed, give them baths, keep them healthy, ride them safely using proper gear, and much more. Though My First Horse and Pony Care Books is a primer that sticks to the bare essentials, safety is always put first, and an index allows young readers to quickly locate and refresh their understanding of key information. Highly recommended especially for young horse lovers and any child preparing to care for or simply ride a horse or pony.

My niece loves it. She is learning how to ride and loves anything with horses.
Not overwhelming
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This book is great for younger riders. It doesn't overwhelm the child with too much information. The illustrations are great. Real photographs of kids and horses not hand drawn pictures.
