Editorial Reviews

11/01/2017
Gr 1–3—Large photographs accompanied by a few facts introduce children to a handful of horse breeds in this perfectly translated series. The featured data includes color, size, and ways humans use horses and train them. Some of the words that may be new to readers are highlighted in the text, and their definitions can be found in the glossary. Every book also includes a few extra facts at the end. The photographs are very attractive and go hand in hand with the text. When appropriate, some of the images include children, thus furthering their appeal. VERDICT A pleasing introduction for the youngest of horse enthusiasts.
