THE REAL HORSE WHISPERERS - How to tame, gentle and train horses
Author: J. S. Rarey & W. J. Powell
Publisher: Abela Publishing Ltd
ISBN: 8829589942
Category : Pets
Languages : en
Pages : 157
Book Description
Well over 150 years before Robert Redford directed and starred in “The Horse Whisperer”, inspired by Tom Dorrance, Ray Hunt and Buck Brannaman, Willis J. Powell was whispering to horses and training them much in the way the fictitious character Tom Booker did in the 1985 film. Indeed this volume was first issued in 1848, a hundred and thirty-seven years before the famous movie. By then Powell had been in business for over 30 years. In this volume Powell and Rarey tell: How to break and ride colts; How to tame the most vicious horses and gentle them to all kinds of vehicles or work; How to break them of kicking or any other bad tricks; How to teach them tricks or actions; etc., etc. This volume also has Numerous valuable receipts for diseases of horses as well as tips for farmers dealing with troublesome cows as well as remedies for oxen that lie down, and won’t get up. As such, we recommend this book to anyone wanting to start a career in Horse Whispering. We also recommend it to young people who are just breaking into equine activities for either pleasure or sport, if only to give a valuable understanding of the nature of the equine breeds. In this volume Powell recounts how he read of a man who had lived a century earlier who had a secret method of taming horses and he resolved to discover the method for himself. Powell commenced his career as a horse whisperer shortly after 1811 and was so successful he was invited to Mexico to train and tame wild and troublesome horses. Thereafter Powell lived in Mexico for about 12 years, and then travelled to Cuba, Guatemala and California taming horses and making a good living doing so. 10% of the profit from the sale of this book will be donated to charities. =========== KEYWORDS/TAGS: The Real Horse Whisperer, Tom Dorrance, Ray Hunt and Buck Brannaman, Willis J.

Reading Picture Books with Children
Author: Megan Dowd Lambert
Publisher: Charlesbridge Publishing
ISBN: 1580896626
Category : Education
Languages : en
Pages : 180
Book Description
A new, interactive approach to storytime, The Whole Book Approach was developed in conjunction with the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art and expert author Megan Dowd Lambert's graduate work in children's literature at Simmons College, offering a practical guide for reshaping storytime and getting kids to think with their eyes. Traditional storytime often offers a passive experience for kids, but the Whole Book approach asks the youngest of readers to ponder all aspects of a picture book and to use their critical thinking skills. Using classic examples, Megan asks kids to think about why the trim size of Ludwig Bemelman's Madeline is so generous, or why the typeset in David Wiesner's Caldecott winner,The Three Pigs, appears to twist around the page, or why books like Chris Van Allsburg's The Polar Express and Eric Carle's The Very Hungry Caterpillar are printed landscape instead of portrait. The dynamic discussions that result from this shared reading style range from the profound to the hilarious and will inspire adults to make children's responses to text, art, and design an essential part of storytime.
