Wild Horses
Michael Bright
- Reading
- Browse the pictures first, then choose one animal or feature to read about together. Compare the visual details with the explanation, and follow any cross-sections that catch the reader’s interest.
- Themes
- Animal lives and adaptations: The book explains how wild and feral equids live in different environments, with examples including zebra stripes and the Namib desert horse’s ability to manage without water. The focus is informational: it connects animal traits and behaviour with the environments in which the animals live.
- Worth knowing
- The book includes accounts of foal birth and zebra migration. These animal-life topics may prompt questions about birth or the challenges involved in moving with a herd.
