Goodreads Summary
I used to adore horses when I was kids. This book reminded me of being under ten again and rediscovering the wonder of the simplicity of life with horses. There are so many things to be learned from horses: their calm and serenity, their simple joys in life, how they are elegant, etc... I do have to say that though the concepts in this book could easily be applied to people, they are aimed at horse people and those that spend a fair amount of time around horses. I loved the stories revolving around the horses. It made me want to spend more time with them and with the people who love them. I liked how wonderful the author's vocabularly is, that's rare to see in most books. I would recommend this book to any lover of horses or someone looking to broaden their horizons.
