(4) K-3 Illustrated by Angelo Rinaldi. This ode to horses begins with a pregnant mare's foaling, then focuses on her colt's first year. The text is spare (sometimes to the point of confusion). Lush, full-bleed, textured oil paintings with realistic-looking details, both expansive and small, evoke the bond between a new horse and the girl who loves him.
