The riding lesson / Jennifer K. Mann.

Mann, Jennifer K., (author,, illustrator.).

Summary:

"Frances adores horses and knows everything about them--at least she thinks she does. But when she arrives at her friend Mae's house for her first horseback-riding lesson...Frances quickly discovers that she might not know as much as she thought she did. Barns are actually a little stinky, and it takes a lot of time to brush a horse and tack it up...Not to mention that horses are much bigger in real life, and being so far off the ground can be a little scary! Will Frances be brave enough to ride Snowball all by herself, or will it be too different from what she's imagined?"-- Provided by publisher.
