5.0 out of 5 stars Starting Riding, July 13, 2000

By	S Braen (Orchard Park, NY USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Starting Riding (Usborne First Skills Series) (Paperback)

I teach horseback riding year round and in summer camp. This little book is perfect for children. The drawings and explanations are accurate, clear, and easy to understand. While the book pictures children and ponies, adults who are just learning the basics of riding will find it informative and fun to read.

This inexpensive little book is excellent for any beginning rider, containing much information, nice illustrations. It is a little gem that any horse lovin' kid would like and would learn from.
