book

Great book for horse lovers. My five year old granddaughter thought it is great.

A day in the life of a colt at his seaside farm

Wild Little Horse is a beautiful book about a little colt who lives in a seaside farm with his parents. As all children just love to run and explore their surrounding and so does this young horse. The story is very lyical and rhyming words that when reading just rolls off you tongue. The illustrations are absolutely beautiful! It makes you want to wish this was your own farm by the sea and owned this family of horses. I love how the book starts in the morning with the little horse waking up and wanting to go out and explore, run free and with his parents nods he's out running down to the beach, into the tidal pools and playing with a seal before meeting back up with his parents who all go back to their barn together to end the day. If your daughter loves horses this is a beautiful book and one you won't mind reading time and time again!

Ideal for Elementary Children

This book by Rita Gray is an encouraging book for children to feel the freedom of adventure with the confidence of supportive and close by parents. Even though the book is about a horse and his parents, children will be able to relate to the message of the story for themselves. (I read this book today to 26 first graders and they loved it.)

I want this horse!

This is a tender and cheerful story, and Ms. Wolff's illustrations are fabulous. Her little wild horse is so warm and alive I expect him to gallop right off the pages. Get this one for every young --or old--animal lover you know.

Marvelous story

Running free and wild as many of us would like to be able to do again. This story was precious. I loved it as much as my granddaughter.
