From the Back Cover

As the official cartoon mascot of the American Quarter Horse Association, the equine narrator "Two Bits' takes children and parents on an educational ride through everything a beginner needs to learn about the American Quarter Horse. With his engaging whinny he teaches the names of each part of the horse, what a horse eats and wears, and the telltale expressions that indicate what a horse is thinking or feeling. Two Bits also tells about the history of the horse, from prehistoric times to the colonial days to the present, as well as practical considerations of buying and maintaining a horse, such as responsibility, grooming, and, of course, riding!With its entertaining line drawings, photographs, and helpful glossary, The Kids' Book of the American Quarter Horse is an easy-to-read guide for ages eight and up. This enjoyable introduction to America's favorite horse is a must for young horse lovers and their parents. (7 X 9 1/4, 200 pages, color photos, b&w photos, illustrations)
