A wonderful introduction to English riding for kids...
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I bought this book for my daughters, aged 6 and 8. While they've been interested in horses for many years, they didn't start formal lessons until this year. As a horsewoman of many years I've been pleased to share my interest with them, and wanted to give them a good starter book. This is perfect for that.The book has only 65 pages, but with its large size and wealth of photos it does an excellent job of communicating a large amount of information. It covers a number of topics, including: chosing a riding school; basic tack and equipment; various gaits; jumping; trail and road riding; grooming and stable care; food and feeding; horse and pony health; showing your horse; and other basic equestrian principles. There is also an excellent glossary and index to round out the book.All in all this is a great introductory book for kids up to teens, and if your child has expressed an interest in learning more about horses and riding English, this is a good book to buy.
What a great childrens book!

I love this book. I bought this book when I first started riding. I spent hours looking at the pictures and re-reading the text. It covers everything from choosing a stable to show prep. I would highly recomend it for any young begginer.
A Great book
