Reviews

Addressed to readers who dream of being horse owners, these volumes cover physical attributes, characteristics, history, and care of different breeds. In each book, a central spread features a photo of a horse with various body parts labeled, although no definitions are provided in the text or glossary. The clean design with text boxes, photos, and other images will draw browsers, and the conversational narratives will encourage reluctant readers. Though information about each breed changes by volume, the chapters devoted to horse care, boarding options, and horse-related activities vary little. True horse fans will want to seek more information elsewhere, but these books provide an attractive starting point. --School Library Journal, Series Made Simple --Journal
