5.0 out of 5 stars A horse lover's dream come true!, July 14, 1997

By A Customer

This amazing book arrived today, and I sat down and read it from cover to cover completely, happily transfixed. If you know horses and love them or know a friend who does, give this book to yourself or your friend. The illustrations are simply breathtaking and the text filled with humor, wonder and love

5.0 out of 5 stars A precious gift for any horse lover, March 26, 1999

By A Customer

I have bought five copies of this lovely art book. Each one I have ended up giving as a special gift to a horse lover. I am ordering one as a wedding gift now...that will make six purchases. Someday, I'll have supplied all those lucky people with one and keep one for myself.

5.0 out of 5 stars This book is for those who love and understand horses., November 6, 1998

By A Customer

Experience this book through your imagination.The illustrations tell more of the story than the written words.This book was given to me by my horse's first veterinarian who knows, that from time to time I need a 'horse fix'. I lost my best friend in '97. This book brings back memories of him. If you show a horse a kind hand, you will have a friend for life and this book proves it.
