A choppy but accessible easy-reader text sings ponies' praises while introducing a smattering of basic facts ("Some ponies wear shoes. The shoes protect their hooves") and some relevant vocabulary (breed, foal, etc.). Well-placed photos, sometimes labeled or captioned, support decoding. Emerging readers who agree that "ponies are the best!" will be thrilled by the many pictures of ponies in action.

Step into Reading series.
This volume highlights the personal lives and racing accomplishments of four NASCAR drivers: Glenn "Fireball" Roberts, Richard Petty, Dale Earnhardt Sr., and Jeff Gordon. A final chapter includes paragraph-long descriptions of four other racing greats. The many photos add appeal to this volume intended as a transition for early chapter book readers who still benefit from lots of visual support.
