Horsing Around: Showing Horses Valerie Bodden

What brushes are used to groom a horse? How do you get a horse to start and stop? What do judges look for at horse shows? When should a horse be trained with a lunge line? Horsing Around offers a brief tutorial on the care, training, showing, and riding of horses, concentrating on each aspect in a separate volume and addressing the concerns of some of the youngest horse enthusiasts. A special dictionary of equine terms defines commonly encountered vocabulary, and other resources encourage further exploration.
