(4) K-3 Eyewitness Readers series. Lively prose characterizes these short stories about horses that "worked with their human partners to become heroes," including chapters on the Pony Express, Roy Rogers's Trigger, and three-time Grand National winner Red Rum. Plenty of mediocre illustrations and well-reproduced historical photographs add interest, but a small trim size gives the book a cramped look.
