Why Do Horses Have Manes?

64 pp. | Kids Can | March, 2009 | Trade ISBN 978-1-55453-312-1 $14.95
(3) 4-6 Answering such questions as "Why do horses roll on the ground?" and "What's a hippogriff?" this slim guide covers standard information (gaits, colorings, and markings) and branches out to the more esoteric ("Why are horseshoes lucky?"). Freestanding text sections with a light and engaging tone combined with glossy photo vignettes of horses vamping for the camera make the book highly browsable.
