rodeo riders

The Saddle Club: Carole, Stevie and Lisa take a trip out West to visit their friend Kate, a championship rider, whose parents run a dude ranch. Trouble is brewing in the form of a rival dude ranch which is stealing away business from the Bar None, Kate's family's ranch. When they impulsively register for a barrel racing contest, they hope to win, even though they are amateurs, but more importantly, they hope to garner positive publicity for the ranch. A nice change from the English riding themed books in the series.

Love Rodeo? READ IT!

It was an excellent book--and educational. I ride English, and I knew just about nothing about Western Rider. If anyone asked me about Western riding before this book, I'd just say, "WEstern? Oh yeah, the one with the horn." I knew nothing at all about Rodeo before this. It gives plenty of information about Cowgirl Barrel Racing, Bronco Riding, Calf Roping, and Steer Wrestling. It was an excellent book, and I HIGHLY recomend it--especially to people who love rodeo!

Real good

I liked this one because it involved barrel racing and rodeo. It was definately exciting.The only thing that I read that was odd was that the bronc riders had to stay on for 10 seconds instead of 8? What's the deal with that? Oh well. I guess it's no big deal. It was still a great book.

READ THIS!

This book was fantastic! I love any kind of riding, especially western. My friends and I, who ride any type of riding, even created a club called the Stirrup Stars! Anyway, this book was funny, plus it made you feel as if you were really there at the rodeo! A highly recommended book for all horse-lovers.
