Learning Horseback Riding

The little horse Max'l offers an entertaining introduction to the sport of horseback riding for all children who love horses. Child appropriate text, fun illustrations, ideas, puzzlers, and opportunities for colouring some of the images, as well as marking and filling-in the blanks make this book the ideal companion for those first riding lessons. Aside from horse care, leading, and the various gaits, little beginning riders receive all kinds of horse related information. They learn important facts about the seat and how to practice and improve the right feel for moving in the saddle. The history and various disciplines of horseback riding, and tips for equipment and choosing the right club complete this delightful book for little horse lovers.
