Book Description
12 year old Ciara lives with her family in a charming ivy clad house, on a busy street in Blueriver town. Her favourite day of the week is Saturday, when she gets a riding lesson at the local stables, with a very smart Connemara pony called Misty. But when she has to leave her school, home, friends and pony to move in with her Grandad, Ciara’s world crumbles before her eyes. After arriving at Grandad’s house on the beach, Ciara discovers that Grandad is a horseman, and he has two large Irish draught horses he is training. But when a bad accident unexpectedly occurs, Grandad is rushed to hospital. Can Ciara help Grandad run the farm and take care of the horses? And will Ciara ever see her beloved Misty again, or has she lost her Connemara pony forever? Join Ciara and Misty in their very first adventure to find out. This wholesome and beautifully told horse story is perfect for horse-crazy kids age 8+ and the young at heart.

A Geography of Horse-Riding
Author : Cheryl Nosworthy
Publisher : Cambridge Scholars Publishing
Page : 265 pages
File Size : 30,22 MB
Release : 2014-08-11
Category : Social Science
ISBN : 1443865524
Book Description
This book presents an in-depth, qualitative exploration of the practice of horse-riding by “disabled” and “non-disabled” riders and their horses. Situated as part of an “affective turn” within human geography, creative and original use is made of poststructuralist theory to bring together animal studies and disability studies in order to decentre the human as we think about the social. Eighteen months of multi-sited performance ethnography “on the hoof” were conducted with riders recruited from local riding schools, an internet forum and three Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) groups. The study employed various methods, including diary-keeping, participant observation and video-recording of riding activities, in order to capture moments of horse-human relating. Through these methods, the embodied expressions of horses are taken seriously as demonstrative of their individual thoughts and intentions.
