"HORSES" is from the "Amazing Animal Kingdom Series".  There are lots of pictures and information about horses, from basic anatomy and the history of horses to equine terminology, what horses actually do with themselves all day, some of their needs, etc.  It also explores specific breeds and various aspects of domestication.This book is suitable for any child old enough to be interested in horses.  It is also interesting for adults, who are sure to learn a fact or two.The text does briefly discuss equine mating, but it omits discussion of the anatomical or mechanical aspects of fertilization and might leave some youngsters with the impression that this is accomplished by sniffing and licking.  On the other hand, this would be a good book with which to broach the topic when the time is right.
