This is the story about an appaloosa horse named, Albert. Upon opening Albert seems absolutely terrified of a group of kids who want to ride him, but his owner, Beth manages to calm him down.

 

The story also touches on a number of subjects and situations children face in today's society.

 

Author Betsy Lee, uses Dolch words in this small chapter book helping develop word recognition, increasing the ability for children, as well as adults to read well.

 

All ages will enjoy this book, which is illustrated by color photos. Included are word search puzzles. For lesson plans visit the author's website.
