How to Love a Pony

Hardcover

Grades Preschool – 2
Ages 3–7

A rhymed Beginner Book about a young girl and her pony, perfect for animal-lovers and budding equestrians!

Meet Lily, a seven-year-old girl who lives with her parents, grandparents, and two brothers on their horse farm in the country. Lily has a Welsh pony that she adores, and in this charming Beginner Book, we see how Lily and her family work together to care for the pony throughout the changing seasons of the year. With vibrant illustrations, this is the kind of story that young riders—or kids who dream of riding—will want to read over and over!

Beginner Books are fun, funny, and easy to read! Launched by Dr. Seuss in 1957 with the publication of The Cat in the Hat, this beloved early reader series motivates children to read on their own by using simple words with illustrations that give clues to their meaning. Featuring a combination of kid appeal, supportive vocabulary, and bright, cheerful art, Beginner Books will encourage a love of reading in children ages 3–7.

“A charming year in the life of a most idyllic farm; horse lovers will be entranced.” —Kirkus Reviews
