Jessie Haas has written over 35 books for children and adults, many about horses--a lifelong passion. She currently owns a Morgan mare, Robin, who is being clicker-trained to be a trail and pasture-dressage horse. She lives in a small, off-grid house in the woods with husband Michael J. Daley, two cats and a dog. When not writing or riding or reading she likes to knit, cook, and write, or ride, or read.
I checked this out in honor of my younger self. She would have loved it, and felt the need to own it because there is *so* much wonderful information and so *many* terrific ideas. Adult me found herself spending too much time with it, too! There are two knots and a braid I am glad to learn. And Haas writes engagingly.
Very informative, and a ton of fun ideas...might have to get this for myself! I didn't know you could give your horse all those treats! Great ideas to help out a colicy horse. Excellent!
