Rating:  Summary: Too Many New Words Distracting From the Plot Review: 6/30/03 Have listened to a young relative reading the book allowed..she picked it for the illustration on the jacket.I have seen the Animal Ark(one which is re many animals(I purchased it in fact a year ago for a neice doing research on Pandas).This book has so many seldom used words,so many uses of words as literary language(e.g. the ponies churning the sand)...
Rating:  Summary: Not the best Animal Ark Book Review: I have read quite a few Animal Ark books,but this one was different. The text was a bit awkward and Mandy and James spoke and thought differently then they usually do. I liked it a little,but only beacause I love horses and riding,(I own my own pony and know quite a bit about horses). I also think that two children could NOT tame a wild pony by themselves. It might give children insane notions that they can tame a wild horse by themself. If you read a lot of Animal Ark books or know about horses,you'll see why I only gave this book two stars.
Rating:  Summary: PONIES AT THE POINT Review: I think that Ponies at the point was a very good book. I thought that the book was very interesting. I did not know what was going to happen to the little colt. I thought that this book was very good because it was intriguing. I liked this book also because it was mysterious. It was like a mystery. I really liked this book. I own other Animal Ark books and intend to purchase others in the series just like it.
Rating:  Summary: Parents Love Animal Ark too Review: If your child is an advanced reader for his or her age, you must struggle to provide challenging, entertaining, but age appropriate material for the child to read. The Animal Ark books satisfy all three criteria. We pre-read everything our 6 year old reads because of our concern about subject matter that is beyond her emotional comprehension. When I read it, this book particularly grabbed my emotions. I was caught up with the thrill of the mystery and the mental pictures of the horses thundering on the beach. It is so well written -- authors of 'adult' fiction ought to take a page from Ben Baglio.
Rating:  Summary: One of the most interesting books I?ve Read. Review: Mandy and James go to Ireland where they see a wild pony with a really tight halter around her neck that is digging into her skin. They have to find a way to remove the halter before it causes more harm to the pony.
Rating:  Summary: One of the most interesting books I¿ve Read. Review: The story is about a family of vets, the Hope family, going on vacation with a friend named James. They are in Ireland and the kids Mandy and James are on the beach when they spot footprints , horse hoof prints . They follow the hoof prints until they find a herd and in the herd they spot a foal with a halter that's cutting deeply into her skin . They told Mandy's parents what they saw and they tried a couple times to get the halter off of the poor foal but they didn't succeed till they met a boy named Sean Malone . You'll have to read the rest of the story to see what happens to the weak little foal .
