5.0 out of 5 stars A spectacular book for a young rider, December 18, 2005
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Let's Go to a Show: How to Win Ribbons & Have Fun Too (Paperback)
Hi,
I love this book. It's on my Christmas list. I've seen it at my best friends house and loved it. It has everything from the kinds of classes to how to win each and every one of them. I can't use it because I ride Western and my mom will not let me have English lessons. If anyone is looking for a spectacular book about how to show look no further. I recomend this item for kids but adults might want a little more advanced information. Take Care.

Love,

(...)

3.0 out of 5 stars Great for kids!, May 19, 2003

"xspursnwhipx" (Dallas, PA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Let's Go to a Show: How to Win Ribbons & Have Fun Too (Paperback)
I thought that this was a great book for my first year hunter students!!! However maybe the title is a bit misleading, as some of the kids thought that just by reading the book they were guaranteed an armfull of ribbons! However it illustrated proper turnout and horsemanship well!!

4.0 out of 5 stars Nice!, February 17, 2004
This review is from: Let's Go to a Show: How to Win Ribbons & Have Fun Too (Paperback)
This book covers everything a young rider needs to know about showing. It has descriptions of different classes, helpful hints and trouble shooting, and it's easy to understand. If an adult tried to read it, it might not be as helpful. But overall, a great book!
