Gavi the horse is getting new shoes! Young readers will learn how horse hooves are similar to their human toenails and experience getting shod through Gavi's engaging first-person (first-horse!) narration.
Sparks fly, smoke rises, and nails are hammered-but with Gavi's calm example, it's clear that getting horseshoes, though important, is no big deal. Children will learn new words about a fascinating trade that has been practiced for millennia.
