Non Fiction
I'm not sure if this book fully categorises as a non fiction book as i read it and i feel no more informed on how to ride a horse. However, it's an excellent spoof of a book and especially an old book like this. with incredible simple line drawings which i find very inspiring i think this book has taught me how much lines can add movement to drawings and i really appreciate the humour of it all it's great to see how a book from i think 1940's? (tried researching a date but there isn't one specifically listed anywhere.) can have such great relevant humour.
Picture Book
following a similar theme to the last book this one is also about horses i'm not even a massive horse fan but there are many excellent old books based on them. One of them is this book about an oridnary fruit wagon pulling horse called mario who was obsessed with eating sandwiches the slight smell or sight of a sandwhich would make Mario go on this wild rampage the book has lovely 2 colour illustrations in and in addition to this a couple of black and white ink pages which are also excellent and display beautiful textures and a relaxed brush style which like the horse play book give the horse movement.
