My daughter loved this book! It is a very sweet story told from a pony's point of view. My daughter learned about trust, forgiveness and how to overcome fear. I highly recommend this book for any child who is able to read at this level. My daughter is 7 and needed no help at all.

Every little girl will love the illustrations in this book, It teaches practice makes progress, however with a little bribe of treats. It is not too long to keep the story interesting. It also teaches a little about keeping your word. Adorable, cute book!

This is an enjoyable book for the emerging reader, repeats common sight words as well as the more challenging to bring out the phonetic skills that are being learnt. As Paddywack is bit of a naughty pony, it makes the reading fun

This was a delightful pony book for the children. I would recommend this story for any child. Also, it explains a little about ponies, jumping, trotting and walking in a contest.

If it was a chapter book it would be amazing! I liked the part where she forgets treats but gives her so much treats she couldn't count then she got kisses.

Book bought for granddaughter who is in kindergarten to practice her reading. She loves horses, so I figured she would love the Pony story.

Liked all the pictures. Would recommend to anyone trying to learn to speak difficult words. Love horses, will read any book with horses!

a good beginner reader book, rather than a "read-to-me" book. this story is told from the horses point of view. cute book!
