    How do you train a horse to plow, much less to function in a cavalry unit? Can horses teach one another to follow human instructions? And perhaps most importantly: why do people always call horses "beautiful animals"? Steven Spielberg's 2011 "War Horse" guides Katie and Norm through these and more Big Questions.

    On this episode, Norm got to pick and elected to watch "Never Cry Wolf," adapted from the book of the same name.
