Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Very Helpful
I bought this book about a week before I got my horse, and it gave me a much better understanding of how horses work and how to work with them. Although the information can be a bit repetitive for those who already know the basics about working with and around horses, there are little details added that were really helpful to me when I got my horse. I recommend it to any age group, whether looking to purchase a horse or wanting to learn more about them.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Highly Recommended
This is great for a person that is a first time horse owner. When I found out we were getting a horse I bought this and it helped me prepare and get what was needed to care for our horse.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Perfect for 1st time horse owner
This makes a great gift for 1st time horse owners or even old pros. it has very useful information laid out in an easy-to-read format.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Awesome Book!
I have always had an interest in horses. Recently I decided to dive in and start learning about the horse from the hoofs to the ears before starting lessons and buying a horse. This book was so fun to read and easy to understand. I loved the colored inserts, icons and photos diagrams. It has helped me understand what to expect and what I need to do to prepare myself...Get it, I know you will be glad you did! :)
