From School Library Journal:
Grade 3–5—This slim volume uses a question-and-answer format to provide short, basic information. It is loosely divided into four sections with titles that are not always self-explanatory. Randomly covered topics include physical aspects of the horse, some historical facts, a few of the creature's idiosyncrasies such as unusual friendships with other types of animals, and "trivial pursuit" inquiries covering hero horses and how to play horseshoes. The material can be found in many other books, but the brief text and appealing color photos could provide an easy reading opportunity for casual browsers.—Carol Schene, formerly at Taunton Public Schools, MA
