Good Horse Books
  I have often read books that had a horse on the front cover but actually had nothing to do with horses or that had horses in them but the people in the book were boy crazy (or girl crazy) instead of horse crazy. I don’t like those types of books. If I’m going to read a horse book, I want it to have horses in it and I want it to be all about horses. Don’t you agree?

So, for those of you who would like to know what you can read that is like that, here is my list:

 Spirit: the Stallion of Cimarron series by Kathleen Duey

Hoofbeats (the Lara series and the Katie series) by Kathleen Duey

The Longest Shot: Lil E. Tee and the Kentucky Derby by John Eisenberg

Seattle Slew by Barton Silverman

The Black Stallion series (Walter Farley, the author, writes many good horse stories, but I don’t recommend The Island Stallion.)

Black Beauty
