I Wonder Why Horses Wear Shoes

I have several songs about horses that I love to teach my kindergarten and first and second grade students. One of them is "My Little Pony Needs new Shoes" and this book works very well to introduce the song and the concept that horses need to wear shoes. It is written very simply and the illustrations are done very well. This would be a great gift for a child who loves horses. It would be a great gift for a child who has horses. It is a great book for teachers to supplement stories about horses with some real practical knowledge. As educators, we have to find as many opportunities as we can to build background knowledge and this is such a book for teaching more about horses. I really like this book!
