This delightful book is three books in one. Part One, teaches the child who wants a horse about the time and commitment they will have to make. Practical and interactive, it gently gives the child an understanding of what is necessary to know about owning a large animal like a horse. Making the learning fun by creating a coloring book the child can claim for themselves begins in the first page which they can color themselves into the story. The third part, the flip side, So She Wants A Pony, speaks directly to concerns parents may have about the costs and financial commitment required to support a horse. Written by an accomplished horsewoman for both the parents and the child in mind. Own the book first, then partner with your child in the decision process.
