If You Want To Ride a Horse
Written by Amy Novesky and Illustrated by Gael Abary
A Junior Library Guild selection
★ "Recreational riding or horse ownership may be unrealistic for many, but here the bounds of reality dissolve with some wishful thinking... Novesky’s fanciful lyricism teeters on the right side of informed infatuation and continues hert rend of crafting adventurous protagonists. Abary’s mixed-media illustrations gorgeously meld the text’s specific details with romantic possibility, centering the escapades a child and their horse might enjoy... A terrific addition to all collections and an absolute must for equine enthusiasts."
