Whether taking their first lessons, handling horses when visiting
friends, or enjoying the glorious challenges of first-pony
ownership, children need to learn more than just “how to ride.”
When it comes to horses, the most important lessons begin on the
ground, not only to ensure a young person's safety, but also to
promote the fair and informed care of an animal so that he remains
healthy and happy in their interactions, too. This highly
illustrated, easy-to-use book is the most complete and correct
guide available for horse-crazy kids and their families to learn
basic horsemanship standards and responsibly apply them in the
barn, in the arena, at home, and at competitions. Professional
grooms and authors of the bestsellers World-Class Grooming for
Horses and World-Class Braiding–Manes & Tails Cat Hill and
Emma Ford are both lifelong horsewomen who have managed barns and
strings of horses for top riders in all disciplines, including
Olympians and World Champions. Since publishing their first book,
they have traveled the country teaching clinics in proper
horsemanship and grooming to aspiring young riders. Now they have
put their wealth of experience to the page with over 400
professional color photos and clear, numbered steps that teach
readers the following: - Catching, leading, and handling - Daily
grooming - Tacking up - Post-riding or lesson care - Tack cleaning
- Barn chores - Packing for shows and competitions - Bathing,
clipping, and braiding - Bonding and playing - Games and goals for
those who don't want to show - And more! With cool tips and tricks
they've learned over the years, and an emphasis on safety and
detail without detracting from the fun of being around horses, Hill
and Ford have created an instant classic—a much-needed resource
that will not only encourage young readers to become complete
“horse people” as well as “riders,” it will preserve and
pass along the management skills honed over a lifetime in barns
held to the highest standards. Hands down, this book is the
must-have starter-kit for every young rider.
