Horseland: Back in the Saddle Again
Horseland is a TV show that comes on at 8:30 on Saturday mornings. I really like it and you should watch it; it's on CBS Kewlopolis. http://http://www.kewlopolis.com/shows/horseland
On this show there are five girls and two boys.
There are books about Horseland. Today I will review Horseland: Back in the Saddle Again, http://www.amazon.com/Horseland-Back-Saddle-Again/dp/0061341681 but you should watch the TV show first, and if you don't like it, just turn the TV off.
In this book, once there was a girl named Molly who sat in the saddle with her heels down and looked straight ahead. She tried to jump the small fence but she fell out of the saddle. Sarah, another Horseland girl, said to Molly, "I once had a super-bad fear... You have to face your fears." Then they went for a walk. Sarah reminded her that riding was easy, but Scarlet, her horse, had colick, a horse illness. Sarah cried on her horse while she laid down on the ground. She said, "Molly, please go get help." Molly and her horse, Calypso, went for help.
The vet came to Sarah and Scarlet in the pasture. The six kids sat on the fence; Chloe sat backwards and then she tipped over into the horse trough. Alma, another Horseland girl, said, "Hey, Chloe, was that one of your fears?" Then Chloe peeked up from the trough. The kids giggled.
And Scarlet was okay.
I like the story because it shows that Sarah is kind, gentle and cares about horses. I think you should read it. Parents can read it to their children who are old enough, of course. It would be a good book for seven to seventeen-year-olds.
