Product Description:
Kids and horses - an irresistible combination. To strengthen the bond between young girls (the most passionate horse lovers of all!) and their equine companions, Cherry Hill presents the essentials of horse care in a format and tone perfect for the teen and pre-teen horse set. Beginning with how to match the right animal with the right rider, and progressing through feeding, grooming, stabling, health care, safety, and much more, here is everything a young equestrian wants and needs to know about horses.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great Introduction to Horses!
This book is written to young girls, but I read it so I would know at least as much as my daughter does about horses. It's easy reading and a good reference to have, especially if you plan on owning a horse at any time.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Great book for beginners
This book has information on every aspect of owning a horse. It's a great book for kids as well as adults. I highly recommend this book for people that want to get into horse ownership.

She is also the author of 24 equestrian books.

Horse Care for Kids discusses, in a simple and straight-forward manner, all of the essentials of equine care. It is a thorough book, written ... Read More



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great beginner horse book for kids
This book has wonderful illustrations depicting how to halter a horse, body language of a horse, horse colors, grooming a horse, and many more practical things to teach you to become a responsible and successful horse or pony owner. It is an easy- to-read book with 116 very informational pages. I highly recommend this book for any child interested in horses, especially one who is thinking about owning a horse.
