Recently on Facebook I read about a free kid’s summer reading program featuring horses. A horse summer reading program. Now this really appeals to me! Not that I need any excuse to read a horse book!
Whilst it is winter here in the southern hemisphere, it’s still appealing to snuggle up with a good book! And horse books tend to have a lot of appeal.
With a focus on bridging school years with summer reading, this reading program highlights various horse authors from around the world.
It states:
Summer reading is an important bridge between school years! Over the summer months, kids can lose valuable skills and knowledge. By participating in a summer reading program, studies show increased reading skills, motivation, confidence, and enjoyment. We have gathered some great international horse authors to promote literacy at all levels and have fun!
Horse Summer Reading
Curious to find out more and possibly take part? You can read more at Rae Rankin’s site.
Whether you’re looking to read fiction or non fiction, a book for young horse fans or older, I encourage you to check out the horse book reviews here on Equus Education. Many different authors have been covered!
And if you’re an author looking for more reviews – please get in touch! I love to read horse books and discover new equine authors. And if you have a young horse fan, perhaps they would be up for some summer (or winter) reading!
“He’s of the colour of the nutmeg. And of the heat of the ginger…. he is pure air and fire; and the dull elements of earth and water never appear in him, but only in patient stillness while his rider mounts him; he is indeed a horse, and all other jades you may call beasts.” –
