My 4th grade daughter and I did this curriculum together. We loved the books so much. My surprise favorite was Brighty - such a sweet and fun yet suspenseful book. Also really enjoyed The White Stallion of Lipizza - so many great character traits modeled in that book. The guide doesn’t have a lot but it’s easily customizable if you want to add more.

We spent a year with this curriculum for my 9 and 7 year olds. The nine year old has loved horses her whole life, and this was her favorite subject! The book list was phenomenal, and the additional history and drawing projects made for a wonderful experience! Highly recommend!

My daughter did this study independently for her 6th grade year and she absolutely loved it. I have 5 other children and wish I could have done it with her, but I know it was an absolutely amazing year for her. I read all the books before or after her, and was so pleased with the beauty of the literature. Marguerite Henry's legacy of historical horse literature is a national treasure. We found about half the books on audio through the library, so my daughter was able to listen and read along, and I know that made it even more enjoyable for her.

I have to share how much our entire household is enjoying the History of the Horse curriculum. My daughter is in fourth grade this year and we purchased and began the curriculum in late spring when schools were closed in our area. This curriculum was one of our first experiences with homeschooling and we fell in love with it and decided we'd go the homeschooling route for the 20-21 year. We've been trying many new things so we haven't moved very fast through this curriculum but we've enjoyed every lesson so far. My daughter loves horses and finding a curriculum that allows her to learn about history while enjoying great literature has been such a treat. Even our 8 year old son loves listening while we read the literature out loud. She just started the section on the Lipizzaner stallions and all four of us in our household were fascinated to learn about these horses. I highly recommend this curriculum to anyone that has a horse lover in their household!

My daughter is loving this curriculum. She wants to be a therapist when she is older and would like to use horses with this goal. Very excited that she is doing so well with it. :)
