Guide Review - A Cup of Comfort for Horse Lovers Book Review
Here is a great compilation of short personal stories to sustain you when you aren't able to spend time with your (or a) horse. The stories are touching, inspiring, educational and celebrate the connection between human and horse.
Editor Colleen Sell, who has compiled twenty volumes of the Cup of Comfort series, has put together a very entertaining collection of over forty stories about horses and their people. Even if your horse is still a 'dream horse', you'll love these stories. These stories aren't about the superstars of the horse world, but of backyard horses and their owners and riders.
Within the pages of this book you'll find stories of heroic horses, horses who teach patience, or help families cope with disabilities and crisis. You won't need to have an extensive knowledge of horses to enjoy this book and there is no bias towards any training method or discipline.
If you are dreaming of owning a horse, this book should strengthen your resolve. If you are a horse owner, you'll recognize the bond and respect these story tellers have with their horses. Tuck this book into your tack box, back-pack, purse or pocket for when you need a bit of comfort and inspiration.
