I love horses too, this looks like a really cute book!
This book covers topics that I'm sure 4-8 year old boys and girls with a love for horses would truly be interested in. Very Cool!

I live in a heavily equestrian area and I think this a book families would really enjoy in Parker, CO.
These are the types of books I would have loved as a kid.
