If You Were a Horse

Have you ever wished you

were a horse?

If you were a horse, you

would run like the wind.

You would have a long tail

and mane .

You would be powerful and

strong.

Oh, how wonderful to be

a horse!

All About Horses

Horses are beautiful animals

with strong muscles. A horse

can easily carry a person on

its back.

A horses powerful legs help

the animal run far and jump

high. Some horses can run

more than miles per hour!

Horses are fast, too. They

are one of the fastest animals in

the world. People like to watch

horse races and guess which

horse will run the fastest.

Horses come in many colors.

They can be black, white, brown,

gray, red, yellow, and more.

Sometimes they are two or three

colors at once.

A white spot at a horses eye

level or above is called a

star. Any white mark below

its eyes but above its nostrils

is called a stripe.

Some horses have spots.

Some horses have stripes. Some

have both, and some have none.

Did you know that a zebra is

a type of horse?

Horses can be tall or short.

Many horses are taller than

people, but some horses are very

small.

Some miniature (MIN-ee-uh-chur)

horses are trained to help blind people.

They are like seeing-eye dogs.

A miniature horse may be

only two feet tall!
