Animals galore but no horse in the store!


Stop me if I've already told you this...Bax wants a book about horses and we can't find one. I have looked and looked. There are books about ducks and dogs and cats and mice and rabbits and cows and lots about pigs. there are books about frogs and goats and mammoths. Mammoths! But not one about a horse.

Of course there are a couple (but probably only about two) that run along the lines of small-woosy-girl-falls-in-love-with-pony-in-a-weirdly-pseudo-sexual-type-way-and-then-the-pony-skips-along-a-rainbow-and-turns-into-a-shooting-star, but no real horse books.

Every weekend Bax says "Horsie Book?" and if we're out we have a look but nadda - not one.

Cows we can do. Izzie is getting this leather and wood ride on cow for her birthday. I didn't take this picture, it is stolen off the internet.

Is it just me (stupid grown up) or is that 'cow thing' a bit spooky! Love the pie, Gerrard. Would love it more if I could taste it as well as see it! Children have no chance of getting an accurate perception of all animals when most appear in children's stories clothed and walking on their hinde legs while speaking. Good luck in your search, will keep my eyes out too.
