Horses have captured our imaginations, as children and adults, for centuries. Here are eight great reads about horses, both fiction and non-fiction, that will keep you entertained all summer long.
The classic tale, immortalized in the film starring Elizabeth Taylor, is a fun read for kids and adults alike. It tells the story of Velvet Brown, a 14-year-old girl who wins a horse in a raffle and trains it to compete in the Grand National, a dangerous steeplechase. Full of general horse knowledge, action, and a charming coming- of-age story, this book deserves a top place on your shelf.
