4.0 out of 5 stars Unrealistic Title, But a Valuable Beginner's Manual
Reality Check: each of the skills profiled in this handy little manual takes practice and patience over the long-term to perfect. However, as a beginner/intermediate student returning to riding after a lengthy absence, I find myself referring to the excellent photo presentation format of this book quite frequently to reinforce what I'm learning in my weekly lessons.

3.0 out of 5 stars lots of photos; easy to read; good information for beginners
This book is short and simple - reads easily photos on every page to go with information; a good beginning book - if you plan on wanting to learn to ride - or even going to a stable to rent a horse for an hour or two for a trail ride this book gives basic valuable information

This review is from: Learn Horseback Riding in a Weekend (Learn in a Weekend) (Paperback)
Reality Check: each of the skills profiled in this handy little manual takes practice and patience over the long-term to perfect. However, as a beginner/intermediate student returning to riding after a lengthy absence, I find myself referring to the excellent photo presentation format of this book quite frequently to reinforce what I'm learning in my weekly lessons. It is surprising just how much of the basics are actually covered. I would not recommend this for the intermediate/advanced rider, but for the price it is a worthy investment especially for the beginner.

This review is from: Learn Horseback Riding in a Weekend (Learn in a Weekend) (Paperback)
Not certain that you can actually learn to ride in a weekend, but it does cover very good material. My daughter has been riding for 2 years and we borrowed this from the library. We liked it so much that we ordered our own copy.
It covers a lot of detail laid out in an easy-to-understand way and is a resource that you can go back to again and again.
