Animal Planet introduces information-packed nonfiction chapter books that are just right for pleasure reading and schoolwork. NEIGH! There are an estimated 60 million horses in the world, and most of them live around people. During the 5,000 years horses have been domesticated, much of the horse-human relationship has developed based on people's needs. They have been used to pull plows and wagons and carry the mail across a growing United States. Only, recent studies show horses can do much more. With their strong connection to people, they can go as far as reading emotions on a person's face. These big, beautiful animals can't speak, but they communicate using body language. Read about how to read their faces, ears, necks, and tails. And see how they move using their four natural gaits: walking, trotting, cantering, and galloping. (Hint: Their front legs provide most of the support for their big bodies. Their rear legs help propel them forward.) Horses! will explain what horses eat, show how they grow from wobbly foals to powerful adults, and explore their natural traits and behaviours. They have been on Earth for 50 million years, and one chapter will look at their evolution and adaptations over that time. It will also look at their social lives and herd behaviour. Horses!, with dozens of gorgeous photos, will be a must-have book for new readers and horse fans alike. AGES: 7 and up
