She is excited to share this story which is about a little girl who meets the challenges of having her first horse. This book is about patience, learning to trust, compassion and communication with a horse. Matches will be able to engage with a Milwaukee Mounted Patrol officer and his equine partner and the therapy horses who work at the Urban Stables. Dinner provided.
