About

More than 9 million horses frolic in pastures around the United States. We ride them, use them to pull carriages, and do work on ranches. But do we really understand why horses behave the way they do? Give young readers a look at what it's like to see, smell, hear, and feel all from a horse's point of view! Readers will discover how horses use their ears and sounds to communicate, why a spooked horse's first instinct is to run, and many more amazing facts about how horses view their world.

School Library Connection
"These informative books are narrated by a generic animal, though the first and last pages are written in the third person. Several of the eight chapters in each volume focus on the animal's senses and communication, explaining topics such as why dogs sniff each other's bottoms. . . .the focus on senses and communication sets this series apart. Solid contenders."
