About Horse Fun: Facts And Activities For Horse-Crazy Kids
Product Description An educational delight, combining real horse knowledge with games, crafts, and activities for kids ages 6-10. When a horse or pony is still in the future and not in the barn outside, learning about how to ride and care for him is the next best thing! Horse Fun is for all horse-crazy kids, whether they ride “now” or “not yet,” combining real horse knowledge with super-fun games, quizzes, crafts, and activities. Readers go to “riding school” and learn the basics of horse care and equitation. They can test themselves and their friends with equine trivia. Easy-to-follow instructions show how to make tote bags, picture frames, dream catchers, jewelry, and hobby horses to compete in hobby horse shows! Plus, kids can follow along with Maxi, a horse-crazy kid just like them, who shares her thoughts in a journal throughout the book. Includes hundreds of color photos and illustrations by renowned Manga artist Anika Hage. Having horses in your life is joyful, enriching, exciting…and FUN. That's why Horse Fun is the perfect book for both those who love to saddle up. Review “If your child dreams of having a horse of their own—a four-legged friend who comes when called and nickers when nearby, who doesn’t judge or pick favorites, who is always there to listen quietly when others don’t, then Horse Fun is the perfect book to get them on their way to having one.” —Atlantic Horse & Pony "A great way to learn for horse-loving kids. This is the perfect book for those who love to saddle up, and those who still dream to ride." —Blaze Magazine "Just the solution to keep kids' brains active and reading. Horse Fun: Facts and Activities for Horse-Crazy Kids is chock full of horse trivia, riding tips, games, crafts, and so much more! A must-read for every young equestrian!" —Northeast Equestrian Life "Horse Fun is a great summer reading and activity book for horse-crazy kids ages 6 to 12, especially those attending summer horse camps." —Mid-South Horse Review "This book is for any young person that is crazy about horses! There is information on breeds, stable management, the different disciplines and so much more! Horse Fun is a joy to read and the illustrations are great visuals." —The Midwest Equestrian "In addition to the valuable instructions about how to stay balanced in your seat, how to ride in a group, and how to jump, Horse Fun contains a myriad of inventive crafts horse-crazy kids can make such as charm bracelets, grooming tote bags, and picture frames. Horse Fun: Facts and Activities for Horse-Crazy Kids is for all horse-crazy kids no matter how old they might be." —Cowgirl Magazine “Horse Fun is a book for the true equine enthusiast. The fun trivia and crafts keep students interested and engaged throughout the many pages. The text is easy to read and the content is detailed while remaining relevant. The colorful illustrations are interspersed with photographs of children riding. The main character Maxi tells many stories about her horsemanship journey. Those stories are captivating as a read-aloud for younger students and as an introduction to longer text for older students. As an instructor, there are games, patterns, and crafts that can inspire your own program. This book makes a great addition to my barn and school library.” —Amy Wood, PATH International Instructor and third-grade teacher I liked Horse Fun because it has crafts that you can do as well as information about horses. I also liked it because it had a bunch of stories about Maxi’s (the main character) life, then on the next page it has facts and suggestions for how you can ride horses, so I learned a lot. Another thing that was cool was how Maxi gives tips for optional add-ons for the activities. I loved Horse Fun and Maxi’s horse, Hobbit, is adorable! —Grace W., age 10 About the Author Gudrun Braun is a writer, editor, and experienced horse person with many published books to her name.
