Synopsis

A gentle introduction to horses will draw both committed horse lovers and those who need a little reassurance before jumping into the saddle.

I have a friend named Catherine, and she has a horse named Shannon. “Come and meet her,” Catherine says.

A little boy isn’t sure if he likes horses, but his friend Catherine assures him that her horse will like him. Shannon is very big, but she’s beautiful, throwing her head up and looking at him with her dark eyes as if she knows everything there is to know. Catherine patiently teaches the boy how to talk to a horse quietly, how to feed her carrots, how to lead her across a field, even how to blow at her softly to show that he likes her. But is he really ready to climb up on Shannon’s back and take a ride? Facts about horses are sprinkled throughout to satisfy inquisitive readers.
