  1. You could also add:

    lunging

    pasture needs

    stable needs

    fencing

    bathing

    trailer needs

    *hmm still thinking* - will get back if more ideas

    Your book sounds good!


  2. You could add

    -Riding Organizations (Pony Club, 4-H) and info about them

    -Types of riding (Eventing, Dressage, Hunters, Jumpers, Reining, Pleasure)

    Your book sounds really cool!

  3. Poisonous  Plants

    Field Info

    Gaining Trust

    Lungeing

    Stable Keeping.. Mucking Out Etc

    Umm Ill Edit If I Cn Think Of Any More


  4. natural horsemanship

  5. How about.........

    Showing e.g. the classes, what you do, getting ready etc.

    History e.g. how it developed over the millions of years

    Relatives e.g. zebra, donkey, mule, hinny etc.

    Work e.g. riding school, farm work, pulling carts, herding

    Driving

    What to wear when - you can tell i'm female!

    Hunting

    i'm still thinking! sounds a good book - gid luck!

  6. showing, jumping, trail riding

  7. You could add things on emergencies, like if you went to the field and found your horse had a cut that was still bleeding or symtoms of common diseases and how to prevent them. Maybe something on lunging and different training techniques?  

  8. Might want to add aussie saddles.  The standard 3 gaits, and then the ones of gaited horses.  Show types, trailering, water needs.  I'll come back and edit if I think of something else.

    Best of luck
