Customer Reviews

My Daughter absolutely loves this book.

We got it for her at the local library and she loves it so much that I'm on here looking to get her a copy of her own before the book needs to go back.

Beautiful pictures

Both my kids, five and one, love this book. They love horses, and most children do. The pictures are beautiful, showing what horses do - run, drink, sleep, etc.

Youngsters will love the photos and story

It's never too early to introduce your child to the exhilarating, educational and just plain fun world of books and stories. Toddlers are naturally curious little beings and are drawn to animals. What better introduction to books is Busy Horsies by John Schindel. Busy Horsies is a board book for infants and toddlers. It's the seventh title in the Busy Book series and introduces children to horses, young and old, in their daily life. "Busy, busy horsies. What are they doing?" They're eating, talking, walking, rolling, racing, chasing, sleeping, leaping and nuzzling, that's what they're doing. The book is filled with crisp, clear photographs and introduces toddlers to brand new names for things like running, eating, etc. It's a vocabulary builder in rhyme. The only criticism I have is that there's not much color in the book and little ones are drawn to color. The photos are pretty much, green, brown, black, white with dabs of blues and reds occasionally. Armchair Interviews says: Toddlers will love seeing horses doing the things that horses do.
