Fun!

It excels in making complex horse-related topics accessible to children. Covering everything from horse breeds to grooming and nutrition, it teaches young listeners about caring for horses in an easily understandable way. The emphasis on kindness and respect towards animals is a highlight.

This audiobook holds a special place for me, with a son who rides and a stepson on riding teams. I fondly recall dreaming of horse ownership. The guide's clear explanations of different breeds, like Thoroughbreds and Arabians, and its insights into horse whispering and grooming are particularly captivating for your minds and mine. Narrated in an engaging manner, it's an ideal resource for families seeking to educate their children about horse care, responsibility, and empathy in a fun, straightforward way."

Kid's Amazing World

This audiobook is an astounding and practical resource that provides children with a wonderful opportunity to learn about these magnificent creatures. It is clear that the author has done extensive research on horses, covering topics such as their life cycles, physical characteristics, mannerisms, and anatomy.
The fact that this audiobook covers everything that children would want to know and need to know about caring for horses is another advantage of listening to it. It lays a strong foundation for them, and if they decide they can handle the tasks, it will be useful.
I GAVE IT TO MY NEPHEW AS A GIFT AND RECOMMEND IT TO ALL KIDS.

Such a wonderful book!

"Horse Care for Kids" by Daniel Hart is such a great idea! I had the opportunity to listen to Hart's audiobook, and it was a pleasure. I am excited to have my daughter listen to it since she has been lobbying for a horse for years. I think you will get an honest look on what it takes to build a relationship with these magnificent animals. Hart delivers a perfect guide on the different types of horses and how to tell the difference between them. There is so much practical information that, honestly, anyone who wants to add a horse as part of the family should have! My daughter is half way through the book and both she and I recommend it highly!
