"The Wild Little Horse" by Rita Gray was very animated, and my daughter loved it...she was constantly calling out the different animals contained within the book...it was fun!!! Almost like going to the zoo, or going to the country to visit her grandma...she really gets her full of the cows and horse out there!!!
Aside from all the animation, Ms. Gray had a really good message for young readers. In the story, the little horse is constantly trying to break-through with his independence...trying to...more

This has been one of my son's favorite books since he was two years old (he is now eight). He absolutely loves horses now, but he fell in love with the book before he ever even met a real horse.
The book is quite long. It's a story, but also a very long poem. I personally love the rhythm of it, and have the entire book memorized (yes, that's how many times we've read it). When he was a toddler/preschooler and we were away from home without the book, I could still "sing" the story to him to help h...more

This is such a cute book about a baby horse going out of the stable and away from his papa horse and mare horse for the first time. He meets some of the other animals around the farm and then explores all the way down to the sea and splashes around in the ocean. It's a sweet story about exploration, discovering fun new things, and still being able to go back to the safety and comfort of mommy and daddy. I love it and my son does, too.
My edition with this ISBN is paperback.
This one I received a few weeks back and had yet to jump in a read it, another one from the Dolly Parton Imagination Library. I really did not realize what I was missing! I went back and picked it out, because I noticed it was on a required reading list in a few years for a curriculum I am considering. Now I know why.

What a great story about a little horse leaving the barn to explore the world
A little horse explores its surroundings.
This was a fun book to read. My son loves horses so he really enjoyed it to. This book reminds me of all children wanting to go out on their own just like the little horse. The little horse wanted to go out on adventures and see things for himself and did not want his parents with him. I also like that there are some rhyming words and different word plays. For examples Gallipity - Lip Gallipity-Lop. This makes it easier for children to sound out words or try to read the words them selves.
Only because it had a horse in it did this book make it into my house from the library.
